Make sure no program has a file open from it, or no file manager is looking at it, or no term or xterm is in it. And make sure you haven't done an 'su' with the *parent* shell in it. Happened to me tonight - I was looking *everywhere* and couldn't find it. Finally hit exit in an xterm and saw my user prompt there.
hello
you can also do a fuser -k /dev/scd0 and it will kill the process which is using the cdrom, be sure it is not your self, otherwise your session will be killed.
thx reply, i submit "fuser -k /dev/scd0 " or " lsof /dev/scd0 " , no any output , i check that it should no other system mounting it , can suggest what can i do? thx.
Just check out that any file or directory from the mounted cdrom is not accessed by any application.... If it's so then just close the application to umount the cdrom......
