"start" tells the drive to spin up, so if it's already running you don't need it. "load" is more for things like tape drives or CD-ROMs where you have a magazine or tray that can be loaded/ejected. -- Dan Nelson [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
