Hi!

I'm putting together a maintenance/rescue CD. It's bootable with
RH6.2 (2.2.16) "installed" - ie the root fs is on the CD itself, no
harddrives involved. I've run across a slight inconvenience:
when I shutdown the CD is still locked in the drive. I have to power-off
then power-on again to get the CD out of the drive. Is there any way
I can get the kernel to unlock the CD and even possibly eject it
on shutdown? If kernel-hacking is required could somebody please
point to where it should be done? (I'm not very familiar with the
kernel-layout).

TIA,
Per Erik Stendahl
