Re: eject floppy in SS10?
yeah, i've tried that... and so my problem now becomes deeper. here is
what's happening:
(floppy is NOT mounted, just inserted)
root@fuzwak ~-#> eject /dev/fd0
eject: open failed for `/dev/fd0': Device or resource busy
root@fuzwak ~-#> eject floppy
eject: open failed for `/dev/fd0': Device or resource busy
root@fuzwak ~-#> cat /proc/devices
Character devices:
1 mem
2 pty
3 ttyp
4 ttyS
5 cua
7 vcs
10 misc
11 kbd
21 sg
29 fb
36 netlink
Block devices:
2 fd
8 sd
11 sr
i'm running a kernel 2.1.130, but this was also true on 2.0.36. the
2.1.130 kernel *does* have the FD=y
.
.
.
#
# Floppy, IDE, and other block devices
#
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_FD=y
# CONFIG_BLK_DEV_MD is not set
# CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM is not set
# CONFIG_BLK_DEV_LOOP is not set
# CONFIG_BLK_DEV_NBD is not set
.
.
.
i've even tried this:
for i in /dev/fd0*
do
eject $i
done
and as you can guess, all come back with the same error as
'eject /dev/fd0'...
any ideas?
