Here you are :
--- Code: ---# fsck.vfat -a /dev/sda2 dosfsck 2.11, 12 Mar 2005, FAT32, LFN
/dev/sda2: 3567 files, 1937004/3658522 clusters
--- End code ---
... and nothing more, except this :
--- Code: ---# cat /proc/partitions
major minor #blocks name

I really can't unmount the ipod !
The only way to get rid of that "Do not disconnect" message on the ipod screen is to shut down the computer !
I'm losing my mind with this ipod !
GodEater:
Have you tried typing "eject /dev/sda" at the command prompt ?

The Ipod showing "do not disconnect" does not mean the Ipod is (un)mounted. Mounting is done on the OS. If you unmounted your Ipod you can safely disconnect it -- that screen on the Ipod waits for some eject command before it switches to the "safe to disconnect" screen. Nevertheless, if the Ipod is unmounted (safely ejected on windows) it's safe to unplug it. I do that all the time and never had any issues arising from it.
pathe:
Ok : the eject command works fine.
I didn't know it hadn't the same effect on the iPod as the umount command : thank you for this.
GodEater:
It doesn't - you still need to issue the umount command, but if you want the "Do not disconnect" message to disappear, you have to use the eject command too.
