unmount doesn't work
Hi guys, I've been trying to unmount a floppy like this:
unmount /mnt/floppy
But then I get a "command not found" message."mount" works,but why not unmount? I've also tried "eject" but all it does is open up my cdrom drive and I tried "eject /mnt/floppy" but I get an error that says Invalid argument.
whats going on with this?
