A question related to this: is it posible to force a driver to unload, even if it says 'device busy'? I have a QIC-80-WIDE tape drive, which doesn't seem to understand the 'eof' command. If i issue this command and then start a 'tar -cf ...', tar crashes with a stack and register dump from the kernel (or whatever those numbers are supposed to be) and the tape device stays 'busy'. If I then try to load the floppy driver, the kernel completely crashes with an awful lot of (register|whatever) dumps on my screen that keeps scrolling for about ten seconds and then stops.
