Taking the disc off the tray is equivalent to going to the monitor and doing "eject -f cd". I.e. programmatic actions leave the disc in (at least if you do not consider laptops and servers; but the guest can detect whether the tray can be auto-closed, and we tell it that it can). Out-of-band user actions force the disc out. > Why exactly? :) Only because change of behavior is bad? Just asking. Thanks. The only practical use of CDs is installation, and it took a looooong time to get it to work with all sorts of guests. Paolo
