Hi folks,

On my PC (2.6.10-rc1, amd64) /sys/module/amd74xx/refcnt is 0,
even though a CD is mounted via this ide interface. Is this
correct?

Of course rmmod amd74xx says

        ERROR: Removing 'amd74xx': Device or resource busy

I had expected that refcnt == 0 indicates that this module
is _not_ in use.

For sata_sil refcnt is 3 (as expected). If I mount or umount
another partition, then refcnt is incremented or decremented.

Regards

Harri
