I can't recall when I last used the eject command in DSL, but it seems that it once umounted and ejected a CD/DVD. Maybe I remember wrong.

In any case, I think the eject command is *supposed* to do that, but currently it doesn't seem to do it. Using DSL 4.2.3, I have to umount a disk and then eject.

There's a switch for umounting, at least in some versions..

No switches in Busybox eject except "-t".
Just realized that it's a permissions issue. "sudo eject" works fine. Maybe that's what I had been doing before, but my old DSL aliases don't include sudo.
