    [SOLVED]Can't unmount hard drive partition

    I'm trying to unmount partitions in Dolphin so I can resize them and I keep getting this error:

    Device to unmount is not in /media/.hal-mtab so it is not mounted by HAL

    Is there another way for me to unmount the partitions?

    Thanks in advance

    Re: Can't unmount hard drive partition

    Assuming the partition is actually mounted, and not the root filesystem partition ( / ), then open a console and type:
    sudo umount partition_name
    See man umount from a console for help with the command umount
    Windows no longer obstructs my view.
