UMOUNT(1)                   General Commands Manual                  UMOUNT(1)

NAME
       umount - unmount a mounted file system

SYNOPSIS
       umount special

EXAMPLES
       umount /dev/fd1     # Unmount diskette 1

DESCRIPTION
       A  mounted file system is unmounted after the cache has been flushed to
       disk.  A diskette should never be removed while it is mounted.  If this
       happens,  and  is  discovered  before another diskette is inserted, the
       original one can be replaced without harm.  Attempts to unmount a  file
       system  holding working directories or open files will be rejected with
       a 'device busy' message.

SEE ALSO
       mount(1), umount(2).
