A new kernel update has been released (Version: 2.6.18-1.2200.fc5) based upon a new upstream kernel release. Please retest against this new kernel, as a large number of patches go into each upstream release, possibly including changes that may address this problem. This bug has been placed in NEEDINFO state. Due to the large volume of inactive bugs in bugzilla, if this bug is still in this state in two weeks time, it will be closed. Should this bug still be relevant after this period, the reporter can reopen the bug at any time. Any other users on the Cc: list of this bug can request that the bug be reopened by adding a comment to the bug. In the last few updates, some users upgrading from FC4->FC5 have reported that installing a kernel update has left their systems unbootable. If you have been affected by this problem please check you only have one version of device-mapper & lvm2 installed. See bug 207474 for further details. If this bug is a problem preventing you from installing the release this version is filed against, please see bug 169613. If this bug has been fixed, but you are now experiencing a different problem, please file a separate bug for the new problem. Thank you. That seems to have fixed the problem. Thanks. |
Description of problem: Compact Flash card in a pcmcia adaptor is listed as a non-removable drive, i.e. SYSFS{removable} is set to "0". This seems to be preventing gnome-mount from mounting the drive. gnome-mount tells me I am "not privileged to mount the volume" (even as root). Works fine if I place an entry in /etc/fstab which makes sense as HAL probably considers it to be a "fixed" disk. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.6.16-1.2096_FC5 How reproducible: Happens every time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Insert CF card in adaptor 2. PCMCIA subsystem recognizes device and assigns it to /dev/hde 3. Actual results: cat /sys/block/hde/removable 0 Expected results: cat /sys/block/hde/removable 1 Additional info: This operation has worked fine on FC1 - FC4
