Description Steev Klimaszewski (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-06-21 10:54:42 UTC 
After upgrading to 2.6.12 kernel (actually, from mm-sources 2.6.12-rc4-mm1)
pmount would complain that /dev/sdaX was not removable.  Upgrading to sysfsutils
1.3.0 (released June 1, 2005) fixes this.

The patch from the 1.2.0 ebuild is applied upstream so it is no longer needed.

Reproducible: Always

It looks like with the sysfsutils 2.1.0 the bug is again there.
Error: device /dev/sdb2 is not removable
After reemerginng sysfsutils 1.3.0 and pmount, the device can be mounted.

This is a bug from 2 years ago. I would recommend opening a new bug and providing full information.
