Dear All,
I have created 252 loop devices in my system and i mounted few iso filses into loop devices .when i rebooting the system error showing "faild to umount "
how can forcefully umount the loop device
Not specific to loopback devices, but in some cases I use fuser to kill all procs associated with a mount... You may also need to remount it as read-only before unmounting and maybe use the -nr option to umount.
Note: ISO9660 file systems (CD/DVD images) can only be mounted read-only. If the OP is mounting CD/DVD ROM image ISO files, they already will be mounted read-only.
