If you're cdrom is effectivly mounted on /dev/wcd0c then try: mount -vrt cd9660 /dev/wcd0c /cdrom If you want to play it safe, try this, it will do anything but the system call, just to see what's going on... mount -dvrt cd9660 /dev/wcd0c /cdrom These will mount your cdrom on /cdrom. I'm not an expert, so maybe you should wait a better advice. +-----------------------------------+ | Free the world from businessmen | | Free yourself from your money | +-----------------------------------+ Free the web.
