I type 'mount_cd9660 /dev/rmatcd0c /mnt' I get an error message saying that a block device is required. I don't know if rmatcd0c is the correct device either. My cd player is at matcd0. Should i use a different mount command? What other type of block device shall i specify? Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Jeff Auerbach Cyber Warrior Inc.
