Once again, do not ask or answer questions in -newbies, it might cause you more trouble than you already have.. try -questions instead. to read files, mount /cdrom is definitely not enough. might wanna try >su *passwd* #mount_cd9660 /dev/acd0c /cdrom #ls /cdrom and if your cdrom device is not acd0, then just replace that with the correct device. you might want to look at "man mount" and "ls /dev/ | more" -lots of interesting information.. > -----Original Message----- > From: Robin Becker [mailto:robin@reportlab.com] > Sent: Saturday, February 17, 2001 12:58 AM > To: freebsd-newbies@FreeBSD.org > Subject: Re: reading from a CD-ROM? > > > In article <3A8DB015.66D788AF@home.com>, sound byte <sound- > byte1@home.com> writes > >I am pretty sure my question has been answered before.
