English here :-) You might want to read the mount(8) man page as well as the mount_cd9660(8) man page. Have you tried "mount /cdrom" ? :-O In order for this to work, you should properly edit your /etc/fstab, and type such a line as "/dev/acd0c /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0". Needless to say, you should also read fstab(5) as well as other mount-related man pages (e.g. mount_ext2fs) if you are interested in mounting all sorts of filesystems :-) Finally, you might find it interesting to read amd(8) (automatically mount filesystems) and have a look at the archives. This issue has been debated. Yours sincerely, Salvo Bartolotta P.S. "Dear Sir" should be followed by "Yours faithfully" at the end of a letter.
