I have found a fix for the problem, but not yet an explanation.

Modify the ejectImageDisk handler like this ...

on ejectImageDisk(mountPoint)
	tell application "Finder"
		do shell script "hdiutil detach " & mountPoint & " -force"
	end tell
end ejectImageDisk ----------------------------

I now get instant ejection. Every time. But why do I need to tell Finder?
I've never had to enclose 'do shell script ...' in any kind of tell block.
Something strange is happening here that needs explaining.

Hello Luther,

I haven't yet tried anything wrt your precise problem here.
Before going further, could you provide us with some more info about the context? I mean, for example, why not just eject the mounted disk(s) either manually or with the help of an eject command targeted to the Finder?


Axel
