I have a problem with mountloop and encription

dirg3r · 10-19-2004, 11:22 PM

I am running Mandrake 10.0 OE with KDE

I have installed mountloop successfully and had no problem creating an encrypted folder with drakloop. My problem is I cannot unmount the encrypted folder.

Code:

[gregory@localhost gregory]$ umountloop /home/gregory/secret
# /bin/umount /home/gregory/secret
umount: /home/gregory/secret: device is busy
umount: /home/gregory/secret: device is busy
[gregory@localhost gregory]$

Is there anyone here who is familiar with this program and can help me out?

To answer my own question

'lsof /home/gregory/secret' to find out whats using it, then just kill the app.

I found that when issuing the ´umountloop´ command you should not have the encrypted folder open in a filebrowser.

Here is an awesome guide I found on MandrakeUsers.org courtesy of Wrenhunt.
