Date: Wed, 23 Aug 2000 14:28:18 -0500 Organization: OmniCorp Interstellar Message-ID: References: In-Reply-To: X-Mailer: Forte Agent 1.8/32.548 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I thought of a feature that I think FreeBSD should have. Question is, is the below possible?? According to all the info on mounting a removable drive (mostly CD's) one must un mount the drive before ejecting the cd to not cause problems. How about a patch to allow the detection of the pressing of the drives eject button and auto un-mount the media something like the feature that adaptec (HP) has for their windows CD-RW software??
