#Is it bad practice to run umount -a instead of specifying the directory to unmount? I’ve always run umount -a to unmount my drive but i notice it unmounts a lot of other things. Is this bad?

    Don’t get in the habit.
    If at some point in the future, you’re working on a system someone else has set up, and which may be a production server, umount -a can fuck up a lot of things.
