Cannot eject automount'd disk drives
Last modified: 2012-03-13 15:21:20 EDT
Description of problem: If autofs is used to mount optical drives, eject tries to umount the file that specifies the automount rules. I don't know if this is a regression (no pre-F15 machines to test on). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): eject-2.1.5-21.fc15.x86_64
This works fine on my box, tested with eject-2.1.5-21.fc15.x86_64 installed on rawhide: eject: using default device `cdrom' eject: device name is `cdrom' eject: expanded name is `/dev/cdrom' eject: `/dev/cdrom' is a link to `/dev/sr0' eject: `/dev/sr0' is mounted at `/misc/cd' eject: checking if device "/dev/sr0" has a removable or hotpluggable flag eject: unmounting device `/dev/sr0' from `/misc/cd' eject: `/dev/sr0' is not a multipartition device eject: trying to eject `/dev/sr0' using CD-ROM eject command eject: CD-ROM eject command failed eject: trying to eject `/dev/sr0' using SCSI commands eject: SCSI eject succeeded Do you have any non-default configuration?
Yeah, it's fairly non-default. --- BEGIN auto.master (snippet) /mnt/cdrom /etc/auto.cdrom timeout=15 --- END auto.master --- BEGIN auto.cdrom cdrom -fstype=iso9660,ro,nosuid,nodev :/dev/cdrom cdrw -fstype=iso9660,ro,nosuid,nodev :/dev/cdrw dvd -fstype=iso9660,ro,nosuid,nodev :/dev/dvd dvdrw -fstype=iso9660,ro,nosuid,nodev :/dev/dvdrw --- END auto.cdrom --- BEGIN findmnt output (snippet) ├─/mnt/cdrom /etc/auto.cdrom autofs rw,relatime,fd=36,pgrp=997,timeout=300,minproto=5,maxproto=5,indirect │ └─/mnt/cdrom/dvd /dev/sr0 iso9660 ro,nosuid,nodev,relatime --- END findmnt output --- BEGIN mount output (snippet) /dev/sr0 on /mnt/cdrom/dvd type iso9660 (ro,nosuid,nodev,relatime) --- END mount output --- BEGIN eject output (as user) umount: /mnt/cdrom/dvd is not in the fstab (and you are not root) eject: unmount of `/mnt/cdrom/dvd' failed --- END eject output And now when I test it as root, it works…. ISTR the output being something like this though: --- BEGIN umount: /etc/auto.cdrom is not in the fstab eject: unmount of `/etc/auto.cdrom' failed --- END It did fail, even as root, but I can't reproduce with the same version and disc. If I see it again, I'll reopen the bug.
Thanks for providing the details.
