I was trying to burn a cd this morning when I got this output error: System ----------------------- K3b Version:0.11.14 KDE Version: 3.2.2-8.FC2 Red Hat QT Version: 3.3.3 cdrecord ----------------------- scsidev: '/dev/hdc' devname: '/dev/hdc' scsibus: -2 target: -2 lun: -2 Error trying to open /dev/hdc exclusively ... retrying in 1 second.

What could be causing it to suddenly not be able to mount it. I tried to unmount and that gave me the same error as above, even tried rebooting same thing, root gives me the same output as well. Any help would be great! Thank you
