Just installed MDK 7.1 on a new Dell T850.
Generally went well...but, of course, there
are a few issues (e.g., sound!).
One is accessing the internal zip drive (atapi).
MDK configured this to use supermount (with desktop icon).
Access is no problem--stuck in disk and clicked on icon.
Problem: disk will not eject (via zip drive eject button)!!
And a software eject command doesn't work--I presume because
it is mounted via supermount.
Any ideas? On the machine this is replacing, I had so many
problems with the external parallel zip drive and supermount that
I went to standard mounting for the zip. That is an obvious
solution here. Why doesn't this work though? The cdrom automounts
and has no problem ejecting.
On a related note, why does lilo.conf (I am using lilo) include
append="... hdd=ide-floppy"? (hdd is the internal zip.)
I have an internal zip on another machine running MDK7.0 that
does not have this line (I am quite sure)--and it works fine.
Thanks for any help!
Norm
