Hi,
Today a technician from Dell replaced the dvd drive in my Dell XPS M1530 because of a jammed dvd.
The disk drive is recognized in the BIOS and when inserting a (windows) boot disk it is able to read and boot from it.
When hitting the eject button while booting, the cd will eject.
Once booted in Ubuntu 11.10, the inserted cd does not appear.
What is the recommended way for removing external disks in FreeNAS 8?
I use an external drive to create an offline backup via rsync using the CLI.
Attaching a USB drive to a FreeNAS 8 server makes it available in the WebGUI where it can be configured just like an internal drive.
However, I cant find an option that allows me to unmount/eject the drive for removal.
I have an older Gateway computer with a CD writer/DVD player installed, and I just started using Kubuntu 12.04. After I insert a CD or DVD, I'm unable to eject it with the button on the drive. It sounds like it's spinning in there without stopping even though I'm not running the disk in a program.
I don't know what file system is on the drive. It could be NTFS.
I'm having some issues with my CD/DVD drive in Ubuntu. When I first start up Ubuntu the drive works fine, but after I eject the disc that was in there, it doesn't seem to be able to mount the drive again. When I try to mount it by right clicking, I get this message: mount: special device /dev/scd1 does not exist.
I'd be very happy if we could make eject go away (as it is dead upstream). However, from looking at the source, it looks like udisks uses /usr/bin/eject whenever it wants to eject a device. If there is a way to make udisks do this "natively" (which sounds very plausible), then I'd be very happy to hear about it (maybe I missed something in the sources, I only glanced).
