Usbkey


Hi,
I've got this line in my fstab to mount my usbkey:
/dev/sda1 /mnt/usbkey vfat noauto,users 0 0
After all, mounting works fine, but unmount don't. I can unmount easily if I haven't changed anything, but if I just fills one byte on it, it says "Device is busy" for ours, before it is ready to be unmounted. Has this anything to do white the fstab line? And if it has, what has to be changed?

make sure to close any programs that use the device, also make sure any terminals or bash sessions are not using /mnt/usbkey as there present working directory: if you are in /mnt/usbkey at the promp type cd .. to get out, then try unmounting,
