Re: Unloading Mac SCSI Drivers?

[David Rostenne]

Thanks to all for your answers!

However; I have been unable to find a driver related to the CD-R, 
AFAIK Toast does not need one.. it just know how to talk to the CD-R 
and Retrospect has no drivers that I can find!

No, once a low-level driver loads, it stays until the system reboots 
(if I'm underatanding the question correctly)

One could disable the Apple CDRom driver with the extensions manager,
  but then the internal CD-Rom drive would be unusable.

If the object is to use the CD burners native driver, then it should be in the
extensions folder, and named  such that it alphabetically sorts to higher than
 "Apple CD/DVD Driver", but lower than " EM Extension" (note the leading space)
This way, the driver will load before the Apple driver, but not before the EM extension
(this one needs to be first).


Hope this helps.

Wouldn't this be possible via the Extensions Manager control panel?

Unloading Mac SCSI Drivers?

[David Rostenne]

Is it possible to manually remove a driver that is loaded on boot up?

I have found that my new CD-Recordable drive automagically gets the 
".AppleCD" Driver installed for it so that Retrospect ignores it. 
However, after I burn a CD with Toast, and go into Retrospect I can 
then use the CD-R for backups!

So, I know this is possible to do, I am wondering if there is a way 
for me to do it by selecting some SCSI ID and forcing the driver 
out...

My system is a Powermac 7200, 104Mb Ram, Mac OS 8.6, All SCSI Id's in 
use... the CD-R is a "Panasonic/Matsushita CW-7502B"

TIA,

dAVE
