A weird error I forgot to mention

So back before spring break, when my computer was crapping itself, I had to at one point reformat my USB stick because its file system had gotten corrupted and so Linux wouldn't write to it. When I did so I initially didn't bother to give the disk a name, which ended up causing the computer to read some bytes that just happened to be there for its name. Naturally, not all of these were ASCII display characters.

This had the odd result that when I hit "eject" when I was done with it... the unmount failed. Same thing when tried it manually. But when I switched to root and tried unmounting it, it worked fine. This happened every time until I renamed the disk, after which it could be unmounted as normal.
