Re: Busy device

hi,

is it coz ur user's home directory is in sda1 and that of root is not ?

when u get device busy message
try doing this
prompt#fuser -vv "give the mount point here [eg : /home/userdir] to which 
/dev/sda1 is mounted"

the output shows the processes accessing that particular mount point.

Regards,
Anoop.
