...really! wow...! you're correct (it worked on 8.1 and 8.2), but it does umount the drive and typing eject /mnt/zip behaves exactly the same and yields this error message: [alan@obi-wan removable media]$ eject /mnt/zip eject: unable to eject, last error: Invalid argument [alan@obi-wan removable media]$ so, to get better info: [alan@obi-wan removable media]$ eject -v /mnt/zip eject: device name is `/mnt/zip' eject: expanded name is `/mnt/zip' eject: `/dev/sda4' is mounted at `/mnt/zip' eject: unmounting `/dev/sda4' eject: `/dev/sda4' is a multipartition device eject: trying to eject `/dev/sda4' using CD-ROM eject command eject: CD-ROM eject command failed eject: trying to eject `/dev/sda4' using SCSI commands eject: SCSI eject failed eject: trying to eject `/dev/sda4' using floppy eject command eject: floppy eject command failed eject: trying to eject `/dev/sda4' using tape offline command eject: tape offline command failed eject: unable to eject, last error: Invalid argument [alan@obi-wan removable media]$ ...guess I'll need to report this, thanks. :( -- Alan P.S. at least the eject button works. :)
