Hello all, Forgive me if this issue has been addressed and I am overlooking it in the archive. My problem is when trying to either eject or unmount a floppy drive or cdrom, I receive an error that the device is busy. There is no activity on either the cdrom or floppy drive and no applications open using either device. I have tried, as both an unprivileged user and root) umount -n /mnt/floppy umount -r /mnt/floppy eject /dev/fd0 all to no avail. There are no hung processes and no errors in /var/log/messages. I am in run level 5 using gnome 2.4.0 and receive the errors from both nautilus (when right clicking on the icon for either the floppy or cdrom) and from the command line. Logging off and logging on does not solve the problem and can only unmount the filesystem by rebooting. /etc/fstab looks normal, nothing is setup in autofs. The only package changes that have been made since i started having these problems were the released updates from the fedora core site. I am running FC1 2.4.22-1.2129.nptl kernel on a P4 2.66 processor, Intel Motherboard 845GEBV2 running the latest BIOS update with 512MB of ram. The CD-Rom is a Creative Labs 52x cd rom and the floppy drive is TEAC. I thank you all for your help in advance Damon Fister
