I'm having a problem with my internal USB card reader, a Carry Computer Eng., Co., Ltd 6-in-1 Card Reader. After I made the mistake of sticking a bad CF card in it to see if I could get the card working, the reader no longer works. When I stick a known good card in and try to access it (using cfdisk: cfdisk /dev/sda), I get this error:
FATAL ERROR: Cannot open disk drive Press any key to exit cfdisk This was working fine before I attempted to read the bad card. I'm pretty sure that just doing a reboot will fix the problem (that's done the job before). However, I would really like to find out if there is a way to get this working again without a reboot, what with me being busy with other things online and not wanting to interrupt what I'm doing right now. So how about it? What is the invocation to bring this reader back to life?
