THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!

to repay you for enlightening me, here's an init.d script for ultrabayd
(on a debian testing/woody system with the package hdparm 4.5-1.2).  i
copied my ultrabayd and idectl scripts to /usr/local/sbin (adjusting the
references inside those scripts accordingly), created this init.d script
to start and stop the daemon, and made the appropriate symlinks in all
the rcX.d directories.

hotswapping the cdrom and floppy on my 770x has been frustrating,
finally driving me to using a desktop to read floppies and just sharing
the contents across the network.  i tried the process documented on
thomas hood's 600 website, but couldn't get it to work (though almost
all his other notes/suggestions for a 600/600x work on my 770x).  after
reading your post to the list, i tried ultrabayd and it works great.  no
more booting my desktop just to share floppies out to my thinkpad.

again, thanks!
