Hello,
I've bought "new" LS-120 drive and found that software eject does not work with 2.6.13 kernel:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# eject /dev/hdc
eject: unable to eject, last error: Invalid argument

The drive spins up and after a while the command fails.
This appears in dmesg after each eject attempt:
 hdc: unknown partition table
ide-floppy: hdc: I/O error, pc = 1b, key =  5, asc = 24, ascq =  0

When I boot 2.4.31, eject works fine.


Can you probive something narrower than 2.4.31 -> 2.6.13 jump?

The problem is caused by idefloppy_ioctl() function which *first* tries
generic_ide_ioctl() and *only* if it fails with -EINVAL, proceeds with
the specific ioctls.
This patch fixes it by first going through the internal ioctls and only
trying generic_ide_ioctl() if none of them matches.
