DESCRIPTION

22       The  rmmount and rmumount utilities mount and unmount removable or hot-
23       pluggable volumes. The optional argument can identify the volume by its
24       volume label, mount point or block device path.
25
26
27       rmmount  can  also take additional mount options if the user has suffi‐
28       cient privileges to override the default mount options.

30
31       Unmounting removable  media  does  not  result  in  its  ejection.  Use
32       eject(1) to optionally unmount and eject the media.
