Sorry, I still haven't found an answer. I'm considering trying a cvsup and
upgrade to 4-STABLE, and see if they ever fixed the problem with a cdrom
drive mounted as primary slave and if that helps. At this point I'm pretty
well floundering. Hell, I'm even thinking of regressing to 4.0-RELEASE, but
4.1-RELEASE was working early in December -- shit, is it a 2001 bug?
Anyway, I'm still getting "cd9660: device busy".

I can't find any process that's using the drive. It's not automounted on
bootup, and the client machine doesn't automount the drive when it's
booted, either; the drive is only mounted manually when I need to give the
network access to a particular CD-ROM, like a TOEFL practice disk we wanted
the students to work on last week.

By the way, the error message the NFS client gave me was something like
"insufficient authority to access device." I know I should try it an get
the exact message, but it's 5:00 Friday afternoon and I have to come in to
work tomorrow.
