Eject Cdrom
Hello ,
I want to eject the cdrom in Linux. The problem is that I 've booted from this cdrom. Now, what I've tried is: umount /mnt/cdrom but this gives me the error message: umount: /mnt/cdrom: device is busy Can anyone help me please ? Its quite urgent. |
You probably have something running from the cd, a document on the cd open, or a terminal cded in to the cd directory.
The most common problem is something like this: Code:
cd /mnt/cdrom |
thnx for your reply, but it still doesn't work.
There's somthing I forgot to mention, Linux booted from that cd, so I guess there's always something running... I've already searched on the net for solutions, but I don't find a case where bootable cd's and umount are discussed. thnx. |
If you booted from the CD (is this Suse Live-Eval?) it is possible that the entry in the fstab would not allow user mounting.
Post the contents of your /etc/fstab file here. |
Here it is...
LABEL=/ / ext2 defaults 1 1 /dev/fd0 /mnt:floppy auto noauto,owner 0 0 none /proc proc defaults 0 0 none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 |
this might be useful to...
when I type the command fuser -v /mnt/cdrom I get: USER PID ACCES COMMAND /mnt/cdrom root kernel mount /mnt/cdrom |
