Using Your CD-ROM Drive

Mounting and Unmounting a CD-ROM Disc

Unmounting a CD-ROM Disc Using SAM

Use the following procedure to unmount a CD-ROM disc:

NOTICE:

Before you unmount a CD-ROM disc, make sure that your working
directory (the directory in which a relative path name search begins)
is set to some directory other than the one under which the disc was
mounted.

CAUTION:

If you wish to use a CD-ROM disc as a mounted file system, you must mount
the CD-ROM disc every time you load it into the drive. You must also
unmount the CD-ROM disc every time you unload it from the drive. Failure
to mount or unmount a disc may cause a system error condition that may
require rebooting the system.
