What brand? :) Seriously, I don't think I could seriously take this challenge, as libdisk is too messy to start from and I do not have enough knowledge of these internals. I guess I could try to re-implement functions such as Int_Open_Disk() in a separate (the low-level) library. It shouldn't be too difficult, assuming the current *implementation* is correct (it's the API that screwed in libdisk case, right?). I'll look at the libwhisk John mentionned, though. A.
