CDROM still mounted while ejected

I thought I would much more answers, but...

Proposed solutions : use lsof to find out what processes still have open

                        files on the CD. I'm searching now for the gcc compiler.

        

                        try another eject (a second one). Nothing has changed.

                        switch the CD off and/or kill any process started while

                        on it. Can not switch the CD off. It's in the server

                        pack... Can't find what processes are to kill.

                        cd to somewhere else than /cdrom/... Already had check

                        it out.

                        REBOOT : what I finally did (before getting the compiled

                        lsof - that'll for the next time)
