bindfs, inverse operation?

In my .bashrc I have

function bindfs () {
  mkdir -p ~/$1
  sudo /usr/bin/bindfs -u $(id -u) -g $(id -g) $1 ~/$1
}

in order to be able, as a normal user, to read, write, execute files on ext3 file systems auto-mounted below /media/. This works fine.

However, I would like to know the inverse operation of bindfs. Otherwise I cannot umount the USB storage media before unplugging.

Solution

  • you can use umount

    sudo umount ~/$1
