When I try to umount /mnt/cdrom and I am currently in /mnt/cdrom/packages/,
I get the umount error: "device busy". Hence the device does not get
umounted (I took the CD-ROM just as an example). It is at this moment that
e2 should cd to /mnt/ and then run the umount /mnt/cdrom command. I am not
sure if we understand each
other. I cannot have the packages directory unavailable as the cdrom
continues to be mounted.
