1 Eject allows removable media (typically a CD-ROM, floppy disk, tape
2 drive, or JAZ or ZIP disk) to be ejected under software control. The
3 command can also control some multi-disc CD-ROM changers, the
4 auto-eject feature supported by some devices, and close the disc tray
7 See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to compile and install
10 The following devices and configurations are known to work with eject:
13 - 1GB and 2GB SCSI IOMEGA JAZ drives
14 - Apple PowerMac floppy drive
15 - HP1534 SCSI DAT tape drive
17 - IDE/ATAPI IOMEGA 100MB ZIP drive
18 - IDE/ATAPI LS120 120MB floppy drive
19 - Parallel port IOMEGA 100MB ZIP drive
23 - Sun SPARC floppy drive
24 - Fujitsu M2512A magneto-optical disk drive (SCSI)
27 - 2.0.36 (and earlier 2.0.x)
28 - 2.1.132 (and earlier 2.1.x)
29 - 2.2.16 (and earlier 2.2.x)
30 - 2.4.4 (and earlier 2.4.x)
31 - 2.6.11 (and earlier 2.6.x)
32 - with both the IDE, SCSI, and IDE SCSI emulation kernel drivers
40 It is loosely based on the SunOS eject command.
42 If you have any problems or suggestions, drop me a line. I'm
43 particularly interested in hearing if it does or doesn't work with
44 media other than CD-ROM or when running Linux on non-Intel machines.
46 Version 2.0 is mostly a rewrite of version 1.5 to clean up the source
47 and add a number of new features (and take out some useless ones).
48 Many thanks to the beta testers for version 2.0:
