Ubuntu Server: Udev automount - can't unmount this USB drive. Any Idea?

  • 772

I use Ubuntu Server 12.04.03 LTS (without GUI) and wrote an udev rule:

KERNEL=="sd?1", SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTRS{product}=="Mass Storage Device", RUN+="/bin/mount /dev/%k /mnt/usbdrive"

This is works well, but then I want to unmount the drive with this command:

sudo umount /mnt/usbdrive

But it isn't work, and there isn't any error message. What can I do?

    You can try this: Append these rules into your .rules file, you've created:

     ACTION=="remove" KERNEL=="sd?1" RUN+="/bin/umount /dev/%k /mnt/usbdrive
     ACTION=="remove" KERNEL=="sd?1" RUN+="/bin/rmdir /mnt/usbdrive
