It seems as if it would not expect the disk to be changed unless the disk change takes longer than the time specified as flushing time.

Hyperdisks hotkeys do not work on my computer, the keyboard starts doing wired things like blinking with caps lock and scroll lock at every keypress, returning upper characters only regardless what I do with capslock etc. -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Klaus Hartnegg, Kleist-Str. 7, D-7835 Teningen, Germany | include standard Bitnet : hartnegg@dfrruf1 or hartnegg@cernvm | disclaimer here!
