FWIW, I used to have a Dell i7500 with a CD-RW, and it worked just fine.

You can get some of these messages if the media is bad or the speed is too 
high, though.  Only some brands of CD-R and CD-RW would ever work properly 
for me; you might want to try getting few samples of different brands and see 
what happens.

| Ok, I tried about 10 times but the results are the same.  I tried mounting
