Ok, i will test it. > I'm unsure however what functionality is really needed: > - Should it be possible to manually enter a device name? I am not sure. It is usually only needed to eject the cdrom in the drive, and i believe that debian-installer has knowledge of which device that is. > - Should I try all devices or only the default one? I am not sure what the default is though. One solution would be to act differently at different priority levels : at priority=medium -> eject the cdrom device. at priority=low -> ask for device to eject, ideally presenting a list of ejectable devices. No idea what the real difference is for priority high, maybe we can move one item to a higher priority. At priority critical, this question will not be asked, so it is not important. > I would appreciate patches against debian/eject-udeb.postinst > and debian/eject-udeb.templates Ok, i will see what i can do.
