If a given process doesn't get killed even with signal 9, then it is
probably the case that the process is in the D state and the kernel is
waiting for some device (or IO) to fulfill a request.

Are you trying to create the image of a badly scratched CD/DVD? What if you
do the same operations without dvdisaster? Say, what if you create the image
with ddrescue? Do you still get uninterruptible processes?

Unfortunately, I can't reproduce this myself and I see that Michael has
already tagged this as unreproducible and moreinfo, which is certainly
appropriate here, as we have too few details to continue debugging.
