Yes, I think Gary should at least have said *why* it works for him. His /etc/fstab file contains something like /dev/cd0a /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0 When you invoke mount with only argument, it looks in /etc/fstab for *either* the first *or* the second field in each line, and if it finds a match it fills in the other information by itself. Have a look: I'm sure that you have something there, but it might be the mount point /cd0 instead of /cdrom. Greg
