I had to modify my fstab and in order to use k3b, I had to mount the CD on the command line first. It won't work if the CD is not mounted first, it's not as easy as it is in Linux, but it works. The pertinent sections of my fstab: /dev/acd0 /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0 /dev/cd0 /usr/home/pollywog/cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto,nodev,nosuid 0 0 I also had to add myself (my username) to the operator group. To make it more convenient, I added an alias in my ~/.bash_aliases: alias mountcd='mount -t cd9660 /dev/acd0 ~/cdrom'
