If this has been brought up, I appologize. I haven't been reading the list 
recently. 

Here's the problem:
I have cooker and contrib local on my hard drive. recently I tried to install 
something but urpmi thinks that the medium is removable. It unmounts the 
partition and then complains that it can't find the packages. Here is the 
output:

[root@mercury root]# urpmi kde3-koffice
eject: unable to eject, last error: Input/output error
Please insert the medium named "Contrib" on device [/dev/hda11]
Press Enter when it's done...

What determines what is removable and what is not? here is the mount point in 
/etc/fstab:

/dev/hda11 /local reiserfs notail 1 2
