Bug Description
Binary package hint: nautilus
I have an external USB hard disk with 2 partitions (1 NTFS, 1 ext3). When I unmount one of them in nautilus (Clicking the orange eject icon), The bubble says the device is safe to remove, although the other partition is still mounted. This affects of course only external storage devices with more than one partition.
OS is Ubuntu 8.10 i386, the disk is a Western Digital MyPassport Essential 320GB (a pretty generic usb-storage disk)
