Why should that be necessary? On my physical machine, I can just manually eject
the cdrom, too, without saying sudo eject first, and the kernel will not be that
confused by it.
Heh, for me, I couldn't manually eject the cdrom when it's in use, unless I wanted
to get
a paperclip out and really force the issue. Which then does lead to messages
getting sent to syslog.
Though, that was a while ago. ;)
You're right about it also looking like the entire virtual drive that might have been
removed too.
