Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone may have any idea how I can stop my Panasonic 
562 CD-Rom drive from ejecting every time the rc.cdrom script is called 
at boot-up.  I've just reinstalled Slackware 2.3, and if there is a CD in 
the drive, then ok, it mounts it. But, if there isn't, it says No CD 
found, and ejects the tray! No, it doesn't eject if the CD is in and 
valid, only when it can't find a CD...

I'd still like to keep the rc.cdrom stuff running, else I'd just kill 
that... Perhaps someone else has had the same prob?  Please mail any 
solutions directly. My news feed is a bit dicey sometimes! :)

Cheers,
