linux is greatest but cannot mount my CD
Please help! Finally I decided to give up with MSWindows and I installed Linux from cd rom(suse 8.0). Simply ....great! Installation was easiest and successfull except for my CD rom drive(mitsumi fx4010m)which seems to be recognised but it doesn't work: you can see it listed as available hardware but if you put any cd in it and click the icon an error message appears: impossible to mount....Mount:no medium found.I even opened the pc to check everything was ok.....how can I solve this problem?
Thanks Michele |

|

What type of cd are you trying to mount? Music, data?
|
it does with every type of cd, even the suse linux ones, if you insert a cd yu hear the noise normally cd rom does when a CD is damaged and cannot be read
|
is this a cd/dvd or cd/burner combo drive?
|
Have you tried changing to root and explicitely mounting the device?
su root *enter root's password* mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom See what it comes up with... |
