I deleted my cdrom by accident and need to know how to add it back in. I issued the command cd /dev && rm cdrom && ln -s scd0 cdrom. and tried cd /dev rm cdrom then entered ln -s hdc cdrom and no avail. Tried dmesg | more and the os does not see my main drive. It sees the burner just fine. Since I assume that all I did was delete the symbolic link would just typing mount /mnt/cdrom then cd /mnt/cdrom that should let me play music correct ? Or just mount /mnt/cdrom to use data cds correct ?
thank you.

Chronos, you’re right about what you deleted. The cdrom name was, most likely a link to the scsi device. It was linked when your system detected where it was. You can replace this link with ln –s /dev/scd0 cdrom. Then use mount /dev/cdrom /cdrom to mount it. You can put an entry in your /etc/fstab to have it automatically mounted on bootup, if your startup files don’t already do this.
