Subject: question about values in /sys/block/???/device/type
Date: Sat, 11 Feb 2006 12:07:06 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1139677626.18414.26.camel@gandalf.cobite.com> (raw)
Hi,
I'm trying to debug why my firewire harddrive is no longer handled by
'hald', and it seems that the value in /sys/block/sdb/device/type is 14
(0x0e) and this is not a value handled by the program. It is expecting
0x00 for disk and 0x05 for cdrom.
In the hald source (blockdev.c), there is a comment:
/* These magic values are documented in the kernel source */
and for the life of me I cannot find out where. You can't exactly grep
for 0x0e and get anything meaningful!
Does anyone know?
BTW, I'm running the FC4 kernel: 2.6.15-1.1830_FC4 on ia32, if that
matters.
