See where the > /dev/cdrom symlink points to and tell VMware to use that. If I do hdc=noprobe I don't see any of these devices, not even /dev/cdrom. If I do hdc=ide-scsi I get these devices: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Aug 7 11:43 cdrom -> scd6 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Aug 7 11:43 cdrom-sr0 -> scd0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Aug 7 11:43 cdrom-sr1 -> scd1 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Aug 7 11:43 cdrom-sr2 -> scd2 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Aug 7 11:43 cdrom-sr3 -> scd3 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Aug 7 11:43 cdrom-sr4 -> scd4 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Aug 7 11:43 cdrom-sr5 -> scd5 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Aug 7 11:43 cdrom-sr6 -> scd6 Maybe that explains why I get 6 icons when a disc automounts, but why is it creating all of these and not just one? Which one do I point vmware player at? Thanks, James
