No. You don't have to mount a music CD. Mounting is related to a filesystem: the line in your /etc/fstab only pretends that if you type "mount /cdrom", you want to say "mount -t cd9660 /dev/acd0c /cdrom", that's all. This line is only for iso9660 filesystems (data CD). Music CD aren't iso9660 filesystems, so don't try to mount them. Instead, use the "cdcontrol" command, like that: $ /usr/sbin/cdcontrol -f acd0 play More details with "man cdcontrol" -- Éric Jacoboni, né il y a 1288282241 secondes.
