I can't eject a CDROM from my ATAPI CDROM drive using the `eject' program
(version 2.0.2 from Red Hat Linux 6.2) on kernel versions 2.3.99-pre6-7
and 2.3.99-pre6 (2.3.99-pre6-3 worked; I don't know about the versions in
between). I get these messages from `eject -v':

eject: unable to eject, last error: Invalid argument
eject: using default device `cdrom'
eject: device name is `cdrom'
eject: expanded name is `/dev/cdrom'
eject: `/dev/cdrom' is a link to `/dev/hdc'
eject: `/dev/hdc' is not mounted
eject: `/dev/hdc' is not a mount point
eject: `/dev/hdc' is a multipartition device
eject: trying to eject `/dev/hdc' using CD-ROM eject command
eject: CD-ROM eject command failed
eject: trying to eject `/dev/hdc' using SCSI commands
eject: SCSI eject failed
eject: trying to eject `/dev/hdc' using floppy eject command
eject: floppy eject command failed
eject: trying to eject `/dev/hdc' using tape offline command
eject: tape offline command failed

I have ide-cd.o, cdrom.o and isofs.o loaded as modules.
