unmount cdrom after installing with toram

**smorty** · 10-05-2004, 10:19 AM

Hi, I've installed knoppix in ram using the "toram" option (it works great!), but when
I try to unmount the cdrom with "umount /cdrom" I get the message
umount: /cdrom: device is busy

Please can someone tell me how to unmount the cdrom after installing with 'toram'
so I can put a new cdrom in the drive?

Thanks!

After toram is done copying the disk you can just remove it. You don't need to unmount it first.

(BTW the /cdrom after toram is just the knoppix image in the ram)
