ejecting cd

[axkhan]

Hi,

I've been trying to eject a cd from my unix box. The eject command doesn't work, it doesn't even display a MAN page when I type man eject. I've tried unmounting in vold, but the vold directory doesn't exist. I tried cdrecord but can't confirm what my device number is. Please advise.

Thanks.
