I first tried using "mount_cd9600 /dev/wcd0c /mnt/cdrom" where wcd0c is the name of the cdrom device (this example is assuming the cd is the master device on the secondary chain) and /mnt/cdrom is the mount point you want to mount the cd at. The closest I have come to mounting the CDROM was using "mount /dev/wcd0c /cdrom" and I recieved the following message: mount: Input/Output Error I did notice that the CDROM spun the disk once before comming up with this error. I have checked the /etc/fstab file to make sure the entry for the CDROM is there. Does anyone have any ideas on how to solve this problem?
