Ever solve eject problem?




Jerry, you reported:

> I get the same problem even as root:

> debian:/home/jerry# mount /dev/hdc
> debian:/home/jerry# umount /dev/hdc
> debian:/home/jerry# eject /dev/hdc
> eject: unable to eject, last error: Invalid argument

...two weeks ago in a thread on ejecting a CD problem.

Did you ever find a solution?

I've got the exact same problem on my recently Debianed box.

I didn't see any solution on the list, although other threads discussed when only root can eject. I can't eject, even as root:

habanero:/etc# eject /dev/hdc
eject: unable to eject, last error: Invalid argument
habanero:/etc# eject /media/cdrom
eject: unable to eject, last error: Invalid argument
habanero:/etc#

My fstab is:

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point>   <type>  <options>       <dump>  <pass>
proc            /proc           proc    defaults        0       0
/dev/hda6       none            swap    sw              0       0
/dev/hda3       /               ext3    defaults,errors=remount-ro 0       1
/dev/hda5       /home           ext3    defaults        0       2
/dev/hdc        /media/cdrom    iso9660 ro,user,noauto  0       0
/dev/fd0        /media/floppy   auto    rw,user,noauto  0       0
endor:/export/home6/emonsler /home/emonsler/nethome nfs defaults,_netdev

Finally, uname -s reports:

Linux habanero 2.4.26-1-686-smp #1 SMP Fri Jul 9 22:32:32 JST 2004 i686 GNU/Linux


Thanks,

Eric
