unable to eject/unmount pendrive

[IAMTubby]

Hello,
How do I eject(unmount) my pendrive from the command line?

I tried doing the following, see output below

$ sudo umount /media/Transcend
umount: /media/Transcend: device is busy.
        (In some cases useful info about processes that use

         the device is found by lsof(8) or fuser(1))

$ sudo udisks --unmount /media/Transcend/
Device file /media/Transcend/ is not a block device: Resource temporarily unavailable

Thanks.

"umount" is the way to go. But it is complaining that one or more files on it is opened by some process. What often happens it that it is the working directory for some process (could be your script). If it's your script, then make it work with a different working directory. If it's some other process independtn of your script (file explorer, etc...) you have to handle the case manually. You can also try "umount -f"

ofnuts, I was indeed running it from the same directory as the pendrive.
Ran it from another directory and worked just fine.

Marking the thread as solved.
