           Summary: Mount locks CD-Rom drive (and possibly others as well).
           Product: mount
           Version: 2.11z-8mdk
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: mount
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


When I mount a drive with Kwikdisk it mounts but doesn't show up as such in 
Kwikdisk, I didn't notice that the app was having trouble and I tried to 
unmount the drive with it however instead it tried to mount the drive again 
and from that point on the drive wouldn't unmount or even open no matter what 
I tried. After rebooting I was able to replicate this in the console by trying 
to mount the same drive twice, the second mount command locked up the terminal 
and neither pressing CTRL+C or using the kill command would terminate mount. 
Shutting down my computer when this ocurred for some reason also showed that 
my home partition was locked and it wouldn't unmount, I lost all changes to 
any files in /home made since I booted my computer. 
 
The drive I had this trouble with was an LG CD-ROM 8483B (I tried several CD's 
however the result was alway's the same), I have not yet tried it with my 
Plextor PX2410A CD writer, I do not know if the bug also affects floppy drives 
and removable USB drives however both so I would appreciate it if this could 
also be checked. 
 
If more information is required I can be reached at n.thomp at sasktel.net .
