CD Stuck?
I am running a Sun ultra 30, and I stuck a music cd in the drive and nothing is working, it will not play the disc, eject the disk. I'm not sure if it is mounted or not? When I go into file manager it shows that there is a cdrom directory and a cdrom0 directory but in the file /etc/vfstab and the mnttab file I'm not sure which of the lines are for the cdrom if any? Any ideas would be great! thanks

I tried "eject cdrom" & "eject /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0" and neither would work. When I tried the latter it told me that the floppy or cd was busy and to use the former, but with no success. Any other ideas.

I read in a solaris book that you could use something called workman to listen to regular cd, but I don't think that I have that.
The "eject" alone doesn't work ?? Or try "eject -f cd" ??

I got "cdrom0: No such file or directory". I forgot to mention that I'm running under CDE ver1.0 or ver 1.1 I think. but all of the commands and buttons that I've found on the desktop will not open the cd. Thanks for your help.

I got it out finally. I turned the power off and after I turned it back on and while it was scanning the disk I jit the manual eject and it came out. Thanks for your help.
