Notice, that the DVD *is* ejected!
Quite often, the kernel is very unhappy that hda (my dvd-drive) is
gone.
I don't know the internals, but it seems to me that eject needs to
call "/etc/init.d/udftools stop" before running the actual eject?
I file this as important, as
a) I can only test (and hence reproduce) this on a an unreleased
architecture
b) I have not yet *seen* (proven) any data loss by this, just the
kernel message (which unfortunately did not appear this time during
testing) does indicate this might happen.
I guess I missed some info, please tell me what info else you need.
