Larsen, AKA K5DI That underscores an important point. That the file system on the optical media may not be iso9660 hence using -t iso9660 would fail in that case. Omitting it causes the mount command to attempt to determine the filesystem and mount it accordingly. As long as it can recognize it and that filesystem type is supported by your kernel you are good to go. Jacques B.
