Can you explain that? AFAIK, the mmcblk driver directly speaks to MMC- and SD-Cards. Those are most likely in an MMC slot, thus removable (although probably none are automatically ejectable). > It may be a viable strategy to consider every usb and firewire block > device to be removable, but I would not extend this to MMC devices. Let's say it this way: which devices that use the MMC protocol (or SD storage) are non-removable? HS
