Understood. I umounted and it works, of course.
I think I tried md5sum /dev/scd0 and _thought_ it hadn't worked. I probably
wasn't waiting long enough and Ctrl-Ced, assuming it had either hung or was
waiting for console input.
Patience and understanding are good, I need more of both, I shall work on
them.
Thank you for your help.
