Howdy!  I just wrote a program which copies disks and verifies the copies,
and allows quick multiple copies if you have a meg free.  (This is for
those BADGE Killer Demo Disks, and the orders keep coming in.)  The only
problem I'm having is the damn validator which is always running.  Is
there a way to tell AmigaDOS to ignore a particular drive for a while?
For instance, DiskCopy does this, with those cute little DF1:BUSY things.
Any help?

And secondly, has anyone gotten the _main from robotroff (with the nice
automatic detach feature) to work under Manx 3.4b?

Thanks!
