Marten Carels is correct - be sure to test the drive queue element flag
byte for either 8 or $48.  I made the mistake of checking only for 8 in
an early development version of Disinfectant.

I have some c code very similar to Brian Bechtel's to test for an ejectable
volume.  Write to me if you'd like a copy.
