I'm trying to do a fresh install of OSX on a new hard drive and the MacBook keeps ejecting the installation DVD. To see if the dvd reader has the problem itself, I tried another random dvd. The problem is it didn't get ejected and now I'm stuck because holding down the eject button doesn't eject it. I can hear that it is being read though.. since the hard drive is new, there is no OS in it so I'm stuck with the blinking question mark upon bootup and I can't also eject the random dvd i put in.
Any ideas what to do?

Okay, I decided to just take the plunge and took it apart.. After opening the optical drive itself, the DVD seems to have been lodged badly so that's how I got it out.
