I am having trouble in FC3 with my floppy drive. If I place a floppy in
the drive it automounts - but then does not autounmount when removed. If
I try to unmount - it tells me that the 'device is busy', does the same
if I use umount command. Googled the problem - and it seems that the
'fuser' command should tell me what the floppy is 'busy' with - but the
fuser command doesn't seem to exist in FC3 - even though the tools
package which it belongs to is installed. Please help.
