Thank you for your quick response.

This has the same effect as doing a 'setcd -l0' before mounting the CD-ROM disk. But this way, it is never locked. I need to have the CD-ROM drive locked during normal operation (ejecting the root filesystem is not very nice :) ), but unlocked immediately before the reboot is done. I was unable to find a way to unlock the tray *after* the disk has been mounted. Is there any or do I need to patch the kernel for the Gibraltar project (other bootable CD-ROM projects will definitely need this too) ?
