Hi!

I have a question concerning the SCSI version
of SyQuest's 230MB EzFlyer drive.

Every time I boot my box, the SCSI-driver
reports something like "Write Protection Off".

>From the manuals of the drive I know, that
EzFlyer supports software write protection under 
WinDoze.

Is there any documentation out there, how
to tell the EzFlyer to set write protection ON
under linux (and set it off afterwards...;-)

Are there any other "commands" like "eject" or
"play folk-jazz" or some other secret 
internals a technique freak like me should know???

Any hints'n'hacks heartly welcome!

Thank you kindly for your help in advance!

KEEP HACKING!
