Hi peepz,

I tried to use my dvd rom, but it doesnt seem to work. Can anyone pls help me with this? I tried mounting it, but it keeps sayin that theres no such medium device or something rather. Its weird, but can someone tell me?

Thanks heaps,
Spyiish

Thats wat it looks like. I have got 1 cdrom, but how do I get the other one working? How do I mount my other dvd rom?

Thanks.

add /dev/hdx /mnt/cddvd iso9660 noauto,owner,ro 0 0

where x is the drive letter of your dvd

then do a mkdir cddvd in your /mnt

should work after that
