- GENERAL
-
- This program belongs to the CacheCDFS. It allows you to (almost) completely
- unmount your CD-ROM from the system. If the FileSystem is still in use
- (e.g. there are open files on a disc, or you have opened the volume)
- KillDev will print an error message.
- It is possible, that the filesystem will not completely vanish from memory,
- but it can free all allocated buffers and become mostly inoperational.
-
- This program will only work with Kickstart 2.04 or greater.
-
-
- IMPORTANT NOTE:
-
- Removing a running filesystem on the Amiga is generally a dangerous thing.
- Great afforts have been made that this operation will not lead to a crash.
- Anyway, use this command with great care.
- You may use KillDev on ANY dos filesystem or handler, but this is not such
- a good idea. KillDev was designed with the CacheCDFS in mind. It may or may
- not work with other filesystems. You have been warned!
-
-
- STARTING KILLDEV:
-
- Just double-click on its program icon. It will examine the tooltypes of its
- icon file and search for an entry DOSDEV=xxx, where xxx is the DOS device
- name (e.g. CD0).
- The installation program has entered the correct name here.
- When starting from the CLI, just enter KillDev xxx, where xxx is the DOS
- device name (e.g. CD0).
-
-
- ERRORS:
-
- If a DOS device refuses to vanish, an error message explaining the reason
- for this behaviour will pop up.
- A common error is "Object in use". This means, that there are still locks
- or files open on a volume belonging to this DOS device.
-
- Please terminate all programs started from this DOS device. Close all windows
- and drawers belonging to those volumes and try again.
