'Splain this, please.

eben@pc:~$ sudo umount /misc/scratch/
umount: /misc/scratch: device is busy
umount: /misc/scratch: device is busy

eben@pc:~$ lsof -n | grep scratch
eben@pc:~$

Why's it busy, then? This might explain why automount never lets it umount.
In particular:

eben@pc:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/autofs stop
Stopping automounter:
   Couldn't stop automount for /misc done.
