NAME

       mountpy - program for quick automatic mounting and umounting of external filesystems, especially suited for USB removable devices.

SYNOPSIS

       mountpy [options] [devices]
       umountpy [options] [devices]

DESCRIPTION

       Just run mountpy to mount all the devices. Short summary will be printed. By default, you can find mounted filesystems under /media

       Run  mountpy  -u  or  umountpy  to umount everything it can. Short summary will be printed, with warning if some device could not have been
       umounted

       mountpy device tried to mount only one device, e.g.: mountpy sda or more devices, e.g.  mountpy sda fd0 cdrom

       use -v to verbosely print what is going on, -vv to get even more information.

OPTIONS

       -u, --umount
	      Umount evrything possible.

       -h, --help
	      Show summary of options.

       -v     Be verbose

       -vv    Be very verbose

NAME

       pumount - umount arbitrary hotpluggable devices as normal user

SYNOPSIS

       pumount [ options ] device

DESCRIPTION

       pumount	is  a  wrapper	around	the  standard  umount  program	which  permits normal users to umount removable devices without a matching
       /etc/fstab entry.

       pumount also supports encrypted devices which use dm-crypt and have LUKS metadata. If a LUKS-capable cryptsetup is installed, pumount  will
       umount the mapped device instead and call cryptsetup to close the decrypted device afterwards.

       pumount expects the device as its only argument. This will umount device from a directory below /media if policy is met (see below).

       Please  note that, as with pmount, you can use labels and uuids as described in fstab (5) for devices present in /etc/fstab.  In this case,
       the device name need to match exactly the corresponding entry in /etc/fstab, including the LABEL= or UUID= part.

       Important note for Debian: The permission to execute pumount is restricted to members of the system group plugdev. Please add  all  desktop
       users who shall be able to use pmount to this group by executing

	      adduser user plugdev

       (as root).

OPTIONS

       -l, --lazy
	      Lazy unmount. Detach the filesystem from the filesystem hierarchy now, and cleanup all references to the filesystem as soon as it is
	      not busy anymore.  (Requires kernel 2.4.11 or later.)  IMPORTANT NOTES This option should not be used unless you	really	know  what
	      you  are	doing,	as  chances are high that it will result in data loss on the removable drive. Please run pumount manually and wait
	      until it finishes. In addition, pumount will not luksClose a device which was unmounted lazily.

       --luks-force
	      Normally, pumount will not luksClose (see cryptsetup(1)) a device pmount did not open. However, you can bypass this restriction with
	      this flag. You probably will need it if you did mess around with the /var/lock/pmount_luks directory.

       -h, --help
	      Print a help message and exit successfully.

       -d, --debug
	      Enable verbose debug messages.

       --version
	      Print the current version number and exit successfully.

POLICY

       The umount will succeed if all of the following conditions are met:

       o device is a block device in /dev/ (it does not need to exist if -l is supplied)

       o device is not in /etc/fstab (if it is, pmount executes  umount  device as the calling user to handle this transparently)

       o device is mounted according to /etc/mtab and /proc/mounts with the calling user's uid

       o mount point is in /media

PUMOUNT AND MISSING DEVICES

       pumount	now  supports unmounting devices that have gone missing for some reason, such as a brutal removal of the device, or a kernel/hard-
       ware problem. Just specify the mount point as argument for pumount.
