automounting cdrom

m_yates · 06-04-2006, 11:06 AM

I am using gnome in Ubuntu 6.06. Gnome-volume-manager works perfectly with my camera, mp3 player, and flash thumb drive. However, if I insert any data CD, nothing happens. How can I troubleshoot to see why CDROM's are not automatically mounting?

check your /etc/fstab file to see if there is an entry for your cd-rom drive.

Code:

/dev/hdc        /media/cdrom0  udf,iso9660  ro,user,noauto              0     0

Something along those lines should be there. Check under /media to see if there is a folder for your cdrom drive, and if there isnt, create the /media/cdrom0 folder that was in the fstab entry.
