<       int err;

>       int err, omask;
1310,1311c1310,1317
<       /* Make sure it was initialized. */
<       if (wd->drvp->state < READY)
---
>       omask = wd->sc_dk.dk_openmask & (1 << part);
> 
>       /*
>          * Make sure it was initialized.
>          * If closed, try to open
>          */
>       if ((wd->drvp->state < READY) &&
>           (omask == 0 && wdopen(dev, 0, S_IFBLK, NULL) != 0)) {
