I recently received a Trimarchi Read Write Optical drive to put on a DECstation 3100. It seems to work fine as long as the disk is not ejected while it is mounted. In fact I managed to crash the 3100 while ejecting the disk during a mkdir. Due to this I would like to be able to disable the eject button. Has anyone done this already? All you have to do is send a SCSI command to the drive. Is there any way to do this without rewriting the driver? -- David Warren INTERNET: warren@atmos.washington.edu (206) 543-0945 UUCP: uw-beaver!atmos.washington.edu!warren Dept of Atmospheric Sciences, AK-40 University of Washington
