This is the weirdest problem I've seen in a long time.

Without the above umount of /cdrom , the following umount /floppy would
fail every time.  (the above code only gets run when a new config is
copied to a blank media)  It took me a half day of trial & error to get
this bug fixed!!!

BTW, /dev/null removed so we can see if error if it occurs again.
