Hello,
since early 2.4 kernels a
| $ mount /mnt/cdrom
on my opened ide-cdroms reports that there is no cdrom in the drive. Old
2.2 kernels closed the tray first and succeeded then.
Aeons ago this issue was discussed already[1], but the current
ide_cdrom_drive_status() function in ide-cd.c contains still the
| if (sense.sense_key == NOT_READY) {
| if (sense.asc == 0x3a && (!sense.ascq||sense.ascq == 1))
| return CDS_NO_DISC;
| else
| return CDS_TRAY_OPEN;
| }
code returning CDS_NO_DISC on "normal" ide drives. Please see [1] for
details.
Enrico
