Recovering from "uncleanly unmounted" loop devices

I've never used an apple except perhaps in 'II' days, but I suspect they have good Human-Computer-Interface. Has this been caried over to 'the sys-X' ? Compared to my regular OS...

Hi, I had mounted ccd1 and cd2.iso files onto cd1dir and cd2dir directories manually, using -o loop option. While doing 'umount' I did not give the -d option. (I did this twice!) How can I clean them up and reclaim thedev-loop* devices?
