In BSD USB media are treated as SCSI emulation, and we use camcontrol
to eject this, so I made a search equivalent of camcontrol in linux

Is there a Linux equivalent of the "remove hardware" command,
something stronger than p/umount and friends?
Background: on my friend's computer there are commands to "safely
remove hardware." My friend insists it's safe to remove a USB thumb
drive only afterits pilot light goes off. She was rather apprehensive
when I took out her thumb drive from my Ubuntu box with the light
still on, saying it might be damaged. I gave her some meek reassurance
that Linux just does things differently ("iba lang ang Linux").
