The problem with such a rule is that it is executed after the device is |
| 13 |
removed, so it cannot unmount the filesystem cleanly. The only way to do |
| 14 |
that would be for udev to know you were going to remove the drive before |
| 15 |
you actually unplugged. |

I thought that pcmanfm, the LXDE file manager, had a context menu option |
| 18 |
to unmount. |
