When trying to access data CD using desktop icon the system crashes after displaying this error message:
Warning Kwin
Window with title devices:/devhdcmntcdrom - Konqueror"is not responding.
Window belongs to application Konqueror PID2411 hostname localhost
If i try and mount /dev/cdrom as root the system also crashes.
The only thing which I know was odd about the instal was that to get the CD to load I had to specify "expert ide=nodma"at the splash screen.
