If quoting a thread, then IMNSHO the thread should have the definitive answer.

And that thread never gets to an answer.  Not being a gnome user, if it is 
part of gnome, and I'm not running gnome (spit), then why can't it be un-
mounted or deleted?  All those answers are dbl-talk to me.  

Here it claims it is busy.  And I get an email from amanda every morning 
claiming it cannot access it.

So how about answering the original question?, which seemed to be something 
along the lines of a 'how can I get rid of it' question.
