sdparm commands:

sudo sdparm --command=sync /dev/sdXY
sudo sdparm --command=stop /dev/sdXY

...fail to stop external drive (despite exit codes equal to zero) after
upgrade to Jaunty (in Intrepid they work ok). My drive is WD Passport.

It seems now we (owners of external drives) are deprived of any
capability/workaround to stop our drives properly.
