Well, try not doing a lazy unmount. If you're copying the image file after(or just using it in any way) you really want to do a firm, no-holds-barred, normal unmount. That will definitely sync the contents of the image to file, and if it doesn't, it'll tell you so -- but there's no telling what a lazy unmount might do when.

Hi,
I have a windows emulator that I am wanting to try out, but my Windows 3.1 files are split up over 6 .DSK images, and I need to convert them to an .IMG that I can actually mount on my system (so that the emulator can see it).
Is there a way to do this?
thanks.

umount
UMOUNT(8) BSD System Manager's Manual UMOUNT(8)
NAME
umount -- unmount filesystems
SYNOPSIS
umount [-fv] special | node
umount -a | -A [-fv] [-h host] [-t type]
DESCRIPTION
The umount command calls the unmount(2) system call to remove a special device or the remote node (rhost:path) from the filesystem tree at
the point node. If either special or node are not provided, the appropriate information is taken from the fstab(5) file.
The options are as follows:
-a All the filesystems described in fstab(5) are unmounted.
-A All the currently mounted filesystems except the root are unmounted.
-f The filesystem is forcibly unmounted. Active special devices continue to work, but all other files return errors if further accesses
are attempted. The root filesystem cannot be forcibly unmounted.
-h host
Only filesystems mounted from the specified host will be unmounted. This option is implies the -A option and, unless otherwise spec-
ified with the -t option, will only unmount NFS filesystems.
-t type
Is used to indicate the actions should only be taken on filesystems of the specified type. More than one type may be specified in a
comma separated list. The list of filesystem types can be prefixed with ``no'' to specify the filesystem types for which action
should not be taken. For example, the umount command:
umount -a -t nfs,hfs
umounts all filesystems of the type NFS and HFS.
-v Verbose, additional information is printed out as each filesystem is unmounted.
FILES
/etc/fstab filesystem table
