Re: Unmount and mount a mass storage from shell

[GN Keshava <keshava.gn@gmail.com>]

Hi Jaben, Thanks a lot for input. My necessity for unmount-mount is that,
the USB client is a Linux storage gadget, which needs to be remounted to
get the updated/new files created by Linux. Anyhow, now I'm doing this
programmatically by copying mount command code from older shell. :)

One more issue is that, after Linux updates some file (on client side,
Linux will mount the same partition, save some file, and then umount the
partition. Then if i remount the partition on Host side, when host is
windows, i will get updated files) I will manually remove and connect the
cable (MS device), UEFI is not able to detect the MS itself. (This issue
observed, regardless of remount. This issue is not there on windows 10
host).
Can you give some pointers on this?

Thanks a lot, Jaben.

Regards,
Keshava
