[ale] ignorance, just ignorance

[kilpatms at gmail.com (Sean Kilpatrick)]

After all, there is a cure for ignorance, but not stupidity.

Anyway,

I have this thumb drive named {thumb1}  I need to rename it [thumb2]

so, as root, I did this:
cd /media
mv thumb1 thumb2

and was told that 'device or resource busy.'

But if I unmount the thumb drive, then it isn't seen by the OS, and there 
isn't anything to rename.

So, how do I rename this thing?
