Description
I must apologise for being a Linux noob, but this is a nice program I would really like to use, if only I could get it working somehow. The problem is that I cannot seem to unmount my flash drive with ldmc -r. I have installed ldm from the AUR, I have enabled ldm.service and have set the required options in /etc/ldm.conf.
Here is what I tried:
- My usb flash drive gets automounted nicely when I plug it in.
- I run ldmc -l, the drive is listed (/dev/sdb1).
- I run ldmc -r /dev/sdb1, and get the message "Operation completed successfully".
- I run ldmc -l again, the drive is not listed any more.
- However, when I run lsblk, the drive is still shown as mounted.
- Thinking that there is another service somewhere that is automounting the drive, I run 'sudo systemctl stop ldm.service && sudo umount /dev/sdb1.
- This seems to unmount the drive, as lsblk is not showing it as mounted any more.
- I reinsert the flash drive, but it does not get mounted, so I guess there isn't another program trying to automount the drive (successfully, at least).
- I run 'sudo systemctl start ldm' and the drive gets automounted quickly, it shows up in both lsblk and ldmc -l.
- When I run ldmc -r /dev/sdb1 again, I get the message "Operation completed successfully" again.
- Now, however, even ldmc -l shows it still as mounted, not only lsblk.
So, I don't know what to do any more. Might it be a problem with udev configuration? Unfortunately I am quite the noob and I don't know where to start troubleshooting it. My Arch Linux install is also quite old now and I don't remember all the things I did in /etc/ several months ago.
