You could use the Amiga DOS command called LOCK I guess. Simply Bload
it into a bank and run it from within Amos. I think this would be the
easiest way.
I'm also sure the JD Extension has some trackdisk commands, but not
sure if it's what you need.
And what about DOS calls? Have you tried some of them?
I dunno who is best to offer advice on DOS calls regarding the
trackdisk.dvice, but Chris Hodges is one of the most clues up guys
I've ever spoken with when it comes to being able to find a solution
:-)
Anyone know any better....???
