This happens to me every now and then and it normally has two solutions:
one, if you are running gnome and you have a cd displayed on your desktop
try to unmount it there. The most often reason I see this is when I am in
the cd directory structure and su to root or another user. This leaves the
or
umount -t iso9660 /mnt/cdrom

Hi Stu:
Where is the /dev/cdrom mounted? The default is usually /mnt/cdrom. I
assume you're using X since you "haven't got a terminal open." If so,
see if you have the file manager looking at that dir or some other
program that has used it and still accessing it and terminate that
connection. Onc
I'm not sure about this, but try killing the process.
