cant install rpms from cd on kde


hi
lately i cant seem to be able to install any software from the installation cd(1-3) when ever i try to do so, using tuhe GUI rpm manager it just keeps on asking me the installation cd..even after i have inserted the same and clicked ok. i have tried updating the thre cds but it gives the msg "unable to update the medium it will be automstically disabled. Errors: unable to access medium installation cd 1 (cdrom1)this could happen if you mannualy mounted the directory when creting the medium".....................i did nothing of the sort the three installation cd were already listed in rpm drake after the installation of mandrake.
i tried urpmi and this is what i got
# urpmi fonts-hebrew-elmar-3.3-9mdk
To satisfy dependencies, the following 2 packages are going to be installed (1 MB):
fonts-hebrew-elmar-3.3-9mdk.noarch
locales-he-2.3.3-8mdk.i586
Is this OK? (Y/n) y
umount: /mnt/cdrom: device is busy
Please insert the medium named "Installation CD 1 " on device [/dev/hdc]
Press Enter when ready... umount: /mnt/cdrom: device is busy
eject: unmount of `/dev/hdc' failed

Please insert the medium named "Installation CD 1 " on device [/dev/hdc]
Press Enter when ready... umount: /mnt/cdrom: device is busy
umount: /mnt/cdrom: device is busy
eject: unmount of `/dev/hdc' failed


but this prob limited only to kde. i could install stuff alright when i logged in using gnome
whats wrong?
