I should probably beware of carrying coals to Newcastle here, but k3b doesn't mount an unwritten cd in the normal manner. Generally, only written cd's should be mounted. > >here is what i have in fstab > >/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom >udf,iso9660,noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0 > >is something w/ that wrong or is there somewhere else loading it > wrong? > >Thanks a lot! This is progress. Since the apparent difference is the 'udf' in your fstab line, might that be the problem? My own line in fstab is: /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom auto noauto,user,exec 0 0 and it mounts by hand, or from an xwindow (kde) icon just fine, advising me that the medium is read-only and is being mounted that way. Humm, I *do* have a /dev/cdrom so I suppose I should change that, no? -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
