Data CD-ROMs have to be mounted before you access the files stored in a track of the CD-ROM. So, you'd have to use something like this to access the mp3 files in a data CD-ROM: # mount_cd9660 -o ro /dev/acd0 /cdrom Audio CD-ROMs can be controlled with cdcontrol(1): # cdcontrol -f /dev/acd0 play 1 More details about data and audio CD-ROMs are described in the Handbook, so you really *have* to look at the relevant section: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/creating-cds.html Regards, Giorgos
