Question Problems mounting CDRW


Hi

I'm having problem with one of my CDRs my Slackware doesn't show it
but the kernel does. I'm running Slackware 10 but the 9.1 didn't show it
both kernel detected it but I can only use one and the slackware 10 isn't so different from the 9.1 exept for the kernel, the GUIs and a little things not a big deal

I tried mount /dev/cdrom1 /mnt/cdrom1
but it says that " mount: mount point /mnt/cdrom1 does not exist "



thanks for any help
