Re: [newbie] can't eject cdrom

[ethan]

I tried that and got this :

 umount /mnt/cdrom
umount: /mnt/cdrom: not mounted
[root@Echelon ethan]# eject
eject: unable to eject, last error: Invalid argument
[root@Echelon ethan]# eject
eject: unable to eject, last error: Invalid argument

so what's the issue ?

thanks

You can also open a shell and do this:(must be root/su)To mount:mount /mnt/cdrommount /mntcdrom2mount /dev/cdrommount /dev/cdrom2To unmount:umount /mnt/cdromumount /mntcdrom2umount /dev/cdromumount /dev/cdrom2You can also eject /mnt/cdrom (or /dev/cdrom) or dev2 & cdrom2...If you want to get a little fancier then:eject -t /mnt/cdrom (and the rest) will close the tray/door back... ;-)
