Question:
I'm on an SGI here in Rm4-035. I just put a disk in the floppy disk drive,
and tried to copy something onto it. Permission was denied, so I decided to
take that disk out to try another, but the eject command doesn't work. I just
get a "eject: No such device. Check your scsi id, fsname, or dir. Exiting."
message. I'm not sure if this is a software or hardware problem, but I would
appreciate any help you could give. I guess I'll just leave my disk in the
drive (m4-035-14 :18.53.0.195).
