This typically means it is a superuser. You didn't show the directory of the shell, so could it be in the directory of /mnt, or one of the mount points, thus showing the partition as busy? I would guess that the superuser might be anywhere in the system, as there is no restriction to prevent that. Try just cd to move to the superuser's home directory, and check which drive that resides on. If it is clear of the unit you are partitioning, you should be all set. If not, you may be attempting to repartition the system disk, and I would think you would need to boot from some other location to do that. Regards, Les H Regards, Les H
