Are you trying this inside of a GUI - if so, it should just automount for the 'user' when the user inserts the CD. If it does not automount when inserted, typing 'dmesg' (as root) should give you some clues at the end of the output. If you are doing this without a GUI and perhaps in say runlevel 3, then try from command line... mkdir /media/cd mount /dev/sr0 /media/cd and see what happens Craig -- Craig, Thanks for your asssitance. I do not see anything in dmesg that stands out to me, here are the line items referencing the cdrom ata2.00: ATAPI: TEAC CD-ROM CD-224E, 3.7C, max UDMA/33 ata2.00: configured for UDMA/33 scsi 1:0:0:0: CD-ROM TEAC CD-224E 3.7C PQ: 0 ANSI: 5 sr0: scsi3-mmc drive: 24x/24x cd/rw xa/form2 cdda tray Uniform CD-ROM driver Revision: 3.20 sr 1:0:0:0: Attached scsi CD-ROM sr0 sr 1:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg1 type 5 My observation of fstab is the same as yours. I am setting this machine up for a user that would not be able to use mount so the standard gui is what I am shooting for. mount /dev/sr0 /media/cd works fine for root but not the users account, and of course this is not gui.
