HAL is supposed t0 take care of mounting it for you. It can sometimes take 30 seconds or so. (It seams longer!) If you want to add an entry in /etc/fstab, you probably want something like: /dev/scd0 /mnt/cdron auto noauto,user,ro 0 0 I shrunk it to prevent line wrag, but that should give you the idea. The noauto prevents it from getting mounted at boot, and the user lets a normal user mount it. Mikkel -- Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for thou art crunchy and taste good with Ketchup!
