how to unmount sdcard surely in 1.1.9 anyway [answered]

that's right i have already told it inside. but my question is if it is on running. i don't need it especially for me. but you can be sure that there are a lot's of people who would need it.

My thinking is if i project me as provider i can't tell you "you should be careful on it", i should give some secure possibilities. maybe just one at last.

my question is to make jolla people more aware on some responsibilities. that they ask themselves, we can live with it or indeed not. maybe my english is too bad for this kind of reflections/thinkings

And option would be to change the mount options (add sync or similar mount options for the filesystems that not use it). However this will slow down access to the SD card (on writes) a lot + might cause extra wear. There just is no silver bullet for this kind of thing...

The most adequate way for users to remove it without harm is shutting down the phone, as soon as something uses the uSD permanently for something $users are screwed with buttons to unmount as it will fail to unmount anyway. Any sane OS pre iOS and android did ask you to shut down, it used to be painful as it took ages to boot (most of the time). But with SFOS, shutdown and reboot takes 15-30 seconds (depends on what is running in BG). Asking for more usage of the uSD and at the same time having it hot-swappable, does not work. I regard it as an additional but persistent storage you can only remove while off (from $user perspective). And PLEASE do not even get the idea to unmount it when removing the backcover, that breaks in so many ways although it would be a sane thing to do (maybe ask the user if removing the sd is desired, and moan to shutdown to remove it if it fails to unmount)!
