It really shouldn't matter much if the system : detects the card removal right away or half a second later, does it? For the install disk, it likely doesn't make sense to use the management irq. For most people, polling is sufficient. The management IRQ reduces the window where you can hang the machine due to the driver talking to hardware that is now sitting in the user's hands...
