I generally use just umount and sometimes -f option.
Simulated the issue in
kvm -m 256 -cdrom /media/sdd1/iso/systemrescuecd-x86-2.8.1.iso
to get the same result.
Steps.
1. cd /tmp
2. mkdir branch ro u
3. mkisofs -o temp.iso somefiles....
4. mount temp.iso ro....
....other steps ....
then deleted branch.... same problem from here...
I know modifying branch dir directly is not recommended,
I was unable to unmount the locked .iso file which became an issue.
