Unmounting a cd in Solaris
I am having a rough time with unmounting a CD on a Solaris box. I am installing Oracle 8.1.7 for someone, and everything was going swell until the system tells me to put in CD 2. When I try to eject CD 1, nothing happens because the CD is still mounted. I looked on the man pages for rmmount to see if there was anything on there that would allow me to unmount the CD, but that was a waste of time. I even searched here on the forum, but the forum gave me nada. Can someone tell me how or point me in right direction of unmounting that CD so I can finish the Oracle installation?

umount.nfs
UMOUNT.NFS(8) System Manager's Manual UMOUNT.NFS(8)
NAME
umount.nfs, umount.nfs4 - unmount a Network File System
SYNOPSIS
umount.nfs dir [-fvnrlh ]
DESCRIPTION
umount.nfs and umount.nfs4 are a part of nfs(5) utilities package, which provides NFS client functionality.
umount.nfs4 and umount.nfs are meant to be used by the umount(8) command for unmounting NFS shares. This subcommand, however, can also be
used as a standalone command with limited functionality.
dir is the directory on which the file system is mounted.
OPTIONS
-f Force unmount the file system in case of unreachable NFS system.
-v Be verbose.
-n Do not update /etc/mtab. By default, an entry is created in /etc/mtab for every mounted file system. Use this option to skip delet-
ing an entry.
-r In case unmounting fails, try to mount read-only.
-l Lazy unmount. Detach the file system from the file system hierarchy now, and cleanup all references to the file system as soon as it
is not busy anymore.
-h Print help message.
NOTE
For further information please refer nfs(5) and umount(8) manual pages.
FILES
/etc/fstab file system table
/etc/mtab table of mounted file systems
