Then there's nothing using the drive and you're barking up the wrong tree. What you're seeing is that windows does a disconnect if you're using the "safely remove" thing. You might be able to get the same effect in linux by running "eject" on the drive, depends on what specifically the drive is looking for. Mike Stone
