It looks below like you were in /proc/ide/hdc when you did the cat command and that does not work to create regular files. You should have been in the regular filesystem and not in the /proc filesystem. You might try this. 1. edit /etc/sysconfig/hwconf and delete the stanza related to the cdrom 2. edit /etc/fstab and delete the line for the cdrom. 3. reboot and allow kudzu to recreate the entries for the cdrom in the hwconf and fstab. 4. Try the mount again. I do not know if the fact the udf module is loaded already may interfere with mounting an iso9660 disk, but on mine the only time the udf module is loaded is when I insert a CD-RW disk.
