i tired to change the CD-RW and DVD-ROM lines in the FSTAB to:

/dev/scd0 /dev/dvd iso9660 defaults,ro,user,noauto 0 0
/dev/scd1 /dev/cdrw iso9660 defaults,ro,user,noauto 0 0

I am able to right-click and choose eject successfully, but when I try to mount it,
it says that the mount point is incorrect....

Are you sure you have your system setup correctly for scsi emulation? Check your kernel and lilo config. In kernel 2.6 why bother using scsi emulation? You can burn CD's without the emulation now.

i can't nessisaryly burn cds if it says that the devices don't really exist though...my problem is i can't even access the two devices....
