I think I confused you a bit with my story. If I want to take out the
card, I have to turn off the camera. Then I remove the card, and plug it
back in. Now it is the same device that connects, it's only the size of
the disk that is different.
Here's an example, first mounting, then ejecting the camera:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]$ mount -v /mnt/camera
mount: you didn't specify a filesystem type for /dev/sda1
I will try all types mentioned in /etc/filesystems or
/proc/filesystems
Trying vfat
/dev/sda1 on /mnt/camera type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev)
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]$ eject -v /mnt/camera
eject: device name is `/mnt/camera'
eject: expanded name is `/mnt/camera'
eject: `/dev/sda1' is mounted at `/mnt/camera'
eject: unmounting `/dev/sda1'
eject: `/dev/sda1' is a multipartition device
eject: trying to eject `/dev/sda1' using CD-ROM eject command
eject: CD-ROM eject command failed
eject: trying to eject `/dev/sda1' using SCSI commands
eject: SCSI eject failed
eject: trying to eject `/dev/sda1' using floppy eject command
eject: floppy eject command failed
eject: trying to eject `/dev/sda1' using tape offline command
eject: tape offline command failed
eject: unable to eject, last error: Invalid argument
So I think 'eject' is not part of the problem.
