Unload a unc?

Unmount. :-)

I thought you were referring to the GCC extension....

Yes, I was. There are two gcc UNC extensions. The extension with libs is over 20MB. I only mount when needed then unmount. Does that not make sense?

It is my understanding that unmounting UNC's can be problematic; I know Robert has cautioned against it, and that it can cause the computer to freeze (as opposed to UCI's, which you can mount---unmount all day). Is this no longer an issue??

I'll defer to Robert's wisdom, but I don't recall freezing. I've only used the UNC (with libs) version a couple times because I usually compile from hard drive install.

Which reminds me...

If mariusc80 is still paying attention to this, UCI and UNC extensions really aren't designed for hard drive install use even though they can (and often do) work well. The dsl version of gcc would be a better choice if you're going to compile on a regular basis with your hard drive install.
