is it coz ur user's home directory is in sda1 and that of root is not ?
when u get device busy message
try doing this
prompt#fuser -vv "give the mount point here [eg : /home/userdir] to which /dev/sda1 is mounted"
the output shows the processes accessing that particular mount point.
Regards, Anoop.

If I plug in a Compact Flash reader I can mount it as /dev/sda1, but I cannot unmount it if I am logged as user as I get a busy device alert, no problem as root.
Any hint??
