Has anybody had problems with NeXT's CD-ROM drive?

Here's what I mean...I do not have the extended Release 3 on my hard drive
(because I don't have the space), so I sometimes play with the demos, etc.
on the CD...the following has happened several times...the CD starts spinning
and does not stop...I can't eject the disc...I have to logout to get every-
thing to return to normal...what gives?  Any clues?

Also, is there a command to force the CD to mount or dismount?


Thanks a lot!  Please email or post any responses!

Later,
Rob
