#632 closed defect (fixed)

Linux-specific terminology in Removable Storage context menu.

Description

When there is a removable storage device mounted, it gets an icon in the Frame.

The context menu for this has an 'Unmount' option. This is a Linux specific term and doesn't make sense to a non technical user.

I think 'Remove' would be a better name for this option, since clicking it will 'Remove' the device from the frame, and will allow the user to safely 'Remove' the device from the computer.

Does anyone know why 'Unmount' was chosen in the first place?

It likely just slipped through. The design is posted here: http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/DesignTeam/Designs/Frame#11
Your suggestion to name it "Remove" sounds just as good, or perhaps better, than "Disconnect". Both are far better than "Unmount".
