"eject" works.
But, I was wondering why the HW button behaves differently in Linux and NT4 (dual boot machine).

When I need to remove it (to insert another one) and I press the HW eject button, the CD tray gets out and IMMEDIATELY gets in again, making it a real adventure to extract the CD itself (fighting with the tray....)Anybody knows "why" ? Thanks a lot indeed. Best regards /Stefano1/ Just guessing here, make sure that you have changed out of your CD dir e.g. /mnt/cdrom to say / 2/ Have you ever tried the "eject" command e.g. "eject /dev/hdd" depending where your CD is. Plus I hate the eject button on the CD-roms I don't how many times I have pressed that button twice.. I just about never use the umount command after I have discovered the eject command. Cheers Mark
