Hi

What command are you running?

Also try fuser -u .

Before rebooting, try this:

# mkdir /newcd
# mount /dev/dsk/cXtYdZ /newcd

If your cd-rom mounts to the /newcd point then delete /cdrom, recereate /cdrom, and retry mounting your cdrom to /cdrom.

Hi
Try clearing the processes hanging on the mount point.
#fuser -cu /
then kill those processes.
if you have used pfs daemons to mount previously, you may want to kill them also.

Thanks.

This is also a common sign when someone has the /cdrom as their current working directory.
