You should see=20 something like: acd0: DVD-R <TDK DVDRW0404N> at ata1-master PIO4 I find that invalid arguments frequently mean that the cd isn't a data=20 cd, but rather an audio cd, or there is no cd in the drive. It's a=20 data cd? You can skip the optional arguments and just: mount /cdrom =20 if the entry is in fstab (which default installs usually have). =2D -Mark =2D----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQE/ZloQF/yyV91po54RArrzAJ95zgfka1g+klxsrz0kJwY4w6SdUQCg9MYf xwJK8ebTj2lNcvuwuaCPXtQ=3D =3DSlhW =2D----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
