Re: Howto: Eject CD?

[Ed Sutherland <digital@twcny.rr.com>]

While "eject" alone did nothing, "eject -v" ejected the CD after giving 
these messages:

digital:/home/ed# eject -v
eject: using default device `cdrom'
eject: device name is `cdrom'
eject: expanded name is `/cdrom'
eject: `/cdrom' is not mounted
eject: `/dev/hdb' can be mounted at `/cdrom'
eject: `/dev/hdb' is a multipartition device
eject: trying to eject `/dev/hdb' using CD-ROM eject command
eject: CD-ROM eject command succeeded

Still, I am unable to mount /dev/hdb or /dev/cdrom in order to play the 
audio CD.
