Device not configured - 12/24/11 01:33 PM
I was working quite a bit yesterday with external drives and a couple got uncleanly dismounted. I noticed an error in my backup log this morning that turned out to be a defunct mount point in /Volumes.
But I can't get rid of it. Normally I'd just rm -d it or even trash it from Finder, but this one doesn't want to go away.
So, am I rebooting to fix this? I don't like to surrender to things like this... it does not show up in disk utility
