Make sure that wcd0 exists by executing as root # cd /dev ; ./MAKEDEV wcd0c and then use the normal atapi cdrom mounting command: # mount -t cd9660 -o ro /dev/wcd0c /cdrom Then you can add the proper entry in /etc/fstab so as to be able to mount it with the simpler command # mount /cdrom The line that you should add in /etc/fstab should look like: /dev/wcd0c /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0 > > Next of all, I can't start the X window. > You need to configure the Xfree86 first, by running (also as root): # XF86Setup Then, follow the instructions on your monitor. Keep handy the model of your video adapter and it's timing information (you should be able to find that in the monitor manuals somewhere) & the type of your monitor, since the setup program will ask you for them.
