I am a little more than a casual user. I develop embedded software and use

I currently have a fiber internet connection and downloads are normally
quick.
I went to http://fedoraproject.org/en/get-fedora-all and downloaded the
direct download for Fedora 10 and burned a DVD with K3B but the DVD would
not mount in my system.
I went back and downloaded the Bit Torrent and verified the sha1sum and then
burned another DVD with K3B and asked K3B to verify the write. All went well
until I tried to mount the DVD.
I get a popup with the following: Error
org.freedesktop.Hal.PermissionDenied. Details Permission denied: Not in
active session.
I haven't seen this described any where else. Can anyone give me a hand.

A few releases back some people had the same problem and it
was related to ConsoleKit. A system update or restarting the
ConsoliKit service would fix it.

Well I found out that I could see the DVD on a windows machine and that
my daughters Fedora 8 machine could mount it just fine. I discovered
that it is just my Fedora 7 machine that now doesn't see any DVD or CD
when I put them in to mount. If I put it in the drive and boot the
machine it will read it to do an install.
My Fedora 7 machine has 2 drives in raid 0 and a bunch of stuff
installed from yum. I haven't done an install on 8 or 9 because so much
stuff has to be backed up and restored and I fear that doing an upgrade
to 10 may have problems.
For now I would like to fix this problem. I am bringing up another
machine that I will put Fedora 10 on and then transfer all my data.
Then I can do a clean install on this machine.
A power down and power up didn't help the problem.
I use yumex all the time as a yum gui. It tells me that I have
ConsloeKit, ConsoleKit-libs and ConsoleKit-x11 installed.
Do I need to get the rpm's and force a reinstall?
