I was able to mount and read an MSDOS floppy. You need to check your dmesg to see what device is your cdrom drive. For example: acd0: CDROM <TOSHIBA CD-ROM XM-6602B> at ata1-master using PIO4 So I use: mount -t cd9660 -o ro /dev/acd0a /mnt Hope this helps. -gordon To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
