System name:		afterburner
Type and version:	SPARC/Classic 7.7K
Display type:		cgthree

What were you trying to do?
	I'm trying to use the eject command on a SPARCstation 5

What's wrong:
	If it so happens that there is no disk in the drive, the eject
command hangs for a very very long time.  For example, I try the eject
command on startup just in case someone leaves a disk behind.  My
console window (ie. my .startup.X) hung for about 27 minutes.  I don't
know if actions that I took in my xterm caused it to restart or not.

What should have happened:
	On the older Suns, it says "No default media available" after
about 2 seconds.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
