    I am currently trying to write an Amiga Dos File System Task.
    The workings of the actual task are no problem to me,

    However I don't have enough information about the actual Dos Packets.
    What do I have to fill into a FIND{IN|OUT}PUT Packet, except for the
    fh_Port field in the FileHandle. I know that I have to write something
    into the fh_Arg1 field, but what?

    Is the information that I put in there intended for the caller, or
    is it for the file system task only?

    The Technical Reference manual states, that Locks can be linked together.
    Which Locks are linked together, and who uses the linkage information.

    Finally, is there a way of unmounting my task when I am through with it?

    Thanks for any kind of information on any of the above questions.
