Hallo Jack, thanks for your quick answer about point 4 of my problem report. I assume Trantor is working on point 1 to 3. Now to point 4: > Option /o for the add driver: no differece, MO still a floppy Yes, this is the way IBM sees removable media. That's not a bug, it's a feature! < >>If you use the IBM OPTICAL.SYS driver, you need to format the MO cartridge as though it is a floppy… and don't use the /o option in that case. I chose 1.44M as a floppy capacity and OS/2 happily formatted it to 120M. << I have made two additional test: Test 1 Optical.sys in config.sys T128SCSI.ADD with /O Result: Optical.sys not installed ( message see problem Report ) Drive folder: MO is floppy ICON Action Check DISK: okay 128 MB Action eject : Error Message: Drive J: is not formatted correctly, or is not wroking correctly. Test 2 Optical.sys in config.sys T128SCSI.ADD without /O Result: Optical.sys not installed ( message see problem Report ) Drive folder: MO is floppy ICON Action Check DISK: okay 128 MB Action eject : Error Message: Drive J: is not formatted correctly, or is not wroking correctly. Questions: So when is the MO handled as HD ?? By handling the MO as floppy the eject action should work ! Rainer
