Has anyone suggestions for the following problem: I would like to completely remove a floppy drive and its associated tasks and buffers from the system. Sending a ACTION_DIE packet to the FileHandler responds with DOS_FALSE (is this meant for a console task ?). It seems possible by looking from the trackdisk task to find the current IORequest from the filehandler and do a CloseDevice for it, or replace the trackdisk task by a dummy one which always returns an error. Does the FileHandler have a cleanup function, or is there a clean way to do this all ?
