Ejecting disc during shutdown?
This should really be in the intial FAQ but I couldn't find the info anywhere. My question is how do I get the disc out of the box without resorting to a paperclip?
I got a copy of the Knoppix 6.2.1 DVD from OSDisc.com and everything works fine until shut down. I use the standard menu shutdown selection and it shuts down the computer but refuses to give up the disc at any time during the shutdown no matter how much you press the eject button. My only option appears to be a restart into the native OS (removing the disc in the reboot process) and then shutting down from there.
I may be wrong, but in older versions didn't there use to be a step in the shutdown where it would stop, asking you to remove the disc, and you would hit return to continue the shutdown?
