				     ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

	I own a Xebec 20 Meg hard disk and would love to have a write protection
	feature.  This dirve is SCSI and doesn't support write protect for
	my partitions.  

	My question:  Is it possible to write a software write protection
		      program that would stay in the background and write
		      protect my 4 partitions?
