[G4] External Drive won't dismount - PS

Anne,

It sounds similar to a problem I had with a Zip disk.  I couldn't 
eject the disk because "it was in use".  A simple reboot wouldn't 
help.  Finally I rebooted into one of my other systems (OSX instead 
of 9.2) and the problem cleared up.  Try another system or reboot 
using your CD.

Good luck,
Mike
