It gets wierder, when I rebooted the CDR was mounted. I put a data in
and was able to see the directories. When I tried to eject it the eject
did not work. So I read some postings that said to eject, I need to
'umount'.

I did:
'umount /mnt/cdroms/cdrom0' and was able to eject.

Problem is, now when I try to:
'mount /dev/scd0'

I get the message:
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/scd0,
        or too many mounted file systems

How can I eject CD's without unmounting and then screwing up my remount?
