Ok so I have spent a long time trying to mount this drive I have and every
time I fail. So I am hoping some one can walk me though it.

When I type: fdisk -l this is what I get

Disk /dev/hda: 160.0 GB, 160041885696 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 19457 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/hda1               1           6       48163+  83  Linux
/dev/hda2               7         492     3903795   82  Linux swap / Solaris
/dev/hda3             493       19457   152336362+  83  Linux

Disk /dev/hdb: 60.0 GB, 60022480896 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 7297 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/hdb1   *           1        6997    56203371   83  Linux
/dev/hdb2            6998        7297     2409750    5  Extended
/dev/hdb5            6998        7297     2409718+  82  Linux swap / Solaris


I am trying to get the top drive to mount( 160.0 GB)
This is what my fstab looks like

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point>   <type>  <options>       <dump>  <pass>
proc            /proc           proc    defaults        0       0
/dev/hdb1       /               ext3    defaults,errors=remount-ro 0       1
/dev/hdb5       none            swap    sw              0       0
/dev/hdc        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto     0       0
/dev/hda   /media/share   vfat   defaults,umask=0000   0   0
/dev/hda3    /media/hda3        swap    sw        0    0

when I type in sudo umount -a I get this:
umount: /dev: device is busy
umount: /var/run: device is busy
umount: /: device is busy

Can anyone help me out?  I don't  want to loose any  information from this
drive at all!  It is very important to me that everything stays on this
drive.
