Mounting causes a drive to come online as a IntranetWare storage device. Dis-
mounted drives are inactive and cannot be accessed.
Before you eject your current media, you should first dismount it (using menu
option 5). When the mount status is Dismounted, you can eject the media. However,
IntranetWare does not allow you to dismount media that are locked.
To insert your new media, wait for the drive to spin up, and then select the Remov-
able Drive Mount Status option.
