check to see if volume manager is running.

issue

ps -ef | grep vold

if volume manager is running, stop vold

To stop vold use the kill -9 (process id) or

/etc/init.d/vold stop (this may be different for sco)

then issued

eject -f (to eject tape or scsi device)

finally restart vold

/etc/init.d/vold start
