me again.
i could eject cd and keep programs working, but whenever i place some different cd it doesn't mount correctly. directory /mnt/auto/cdrom is empty or showing contents of one folder from CD with 8.3 names. i tried to mount cdrom manually and automatically (cd'ing to folder /mnt/auto/cdrom).
i've tried different combinations of 2.4, 2.6 kernel, and atapicd mode. (knoppix 3.7)

LiveCD Ejection
Useful hint! I like the bootfrom, too.
But if anyone wants a low-hassle longer term solution, I have pre-installed Knoppix 3.7 on 40/80 GB HDs for $75/$85, + shipping, respectively. Just starting this out as a personal venture. Send HW setup info if you want some pre-tailoring to your needs, but Knoppix is pretty competent in that regard anyway, as you know.

I realise this is a very old posting, however I just came across it today through a google search, so there is a good chance many others in a similar predicament may stumble across it also.
Won't help everyone, but its worth noting that your CD/DVD drive may well mount under /dev/hdc on many systems (this one is a Toshiba Satellite laptop).
In my case I had removed a prior disk (I'm on a HD installation of Knoppix) and inserted another. It took me a couple of minutes messing about before I discovered that it was hdc, not cdrom or similar.
'eject /dev/hdc' did the trick just fine.
Hope this helps someone!
