[ale] Stupid Question Time

[Michael Nolan]

I can't figure out how I did this.

While working on fixing a Seagate 7200.11 BSY error fix, I attached
and mounted a drive from a HP Windows machine that had two partitions
on it using Mount Manager (*I think*)

This machine has a 120 GB SSD and 2 terabyte WD Caviar Black and a
popgplug mount point mounted in /media

I mounted the two partitions from the Seagate 7200.11 drive as sdc1
and sdc2 in /media  and copied all the data off them to the 2GB drive.

After I got the data off the drives, I logged off and shut down and
pulled the drive. The mount points for the partitions remains in
/media along with the 2 GB drive and popgoplug.

I now have no option to delete them or remove them and they persist in
/media even though the physical drive is in the basement collecting
dust.

I'm sue I'm looking for the wrong terms in Google, or something simple
to do, and just can't seem to find it. Can anyone point me in the
right direction for the solution to get these artifacts off the drive?

Should I put the drive back in and unmount it?

Thank for any help, jokes, snide remarks, punts, haiku poems, you all
may be able to provide that will send me on my was.

Mike N,
