When pktcdvd is given a pkt device that does not exist it just happily sets it up. The module then fails my locking up mount processes and then won't unload or reset. Obviously this is user error, but the system should handle it a little better.
Can you be more specific? What exactly did you type and what kernel version were you running? I wasn't able to provoke this error using kernel 2.4.20.
2.4.19 modprobe sr_mod (ide-scsi and scsi already loaded) modprobe sg modprobe pktcdvd pktsetup /dev/pktcdvd /dev/scd0 (should have been /dev/pktcdvd0) mount /dev/pktcdvd /mnt/floppy - locked for long time, went to work and came back to prompt - mount - pktcdvd nor floppy listed - modprobe -r pktcdvd rmmod: Device or resource busy pktsetup /dev/pktcdvd0 /dev/scd0 - forget the error message - reboot NR
