Re: Mounting CD-ROM (new user problem)

[tolls <tolls@kencaryl.net>]

mount -t cd9660 -r /dev/cd0a /mnt/cdrom 
is the example from man mount.  but you also need to check your dmesg
to make sure you're pointing to the device correctly.  you're trying
to mount the cdrom in a directory under /mnt, so make sure you've
actually created the cdrom directory(/mnt/cdrom/).  also, you have to
be root to mount so you can either use su or sudo to get root and then
issue your mount command.  i hope this helps.
