Registered Linux User #487982. Be counted at: http://counter.li.org/ -- Hiisi, thanks for your help. fstab did not have any /dev/cdrom entry present, but my other FC machines did not have an entry either. I added the line item entry into /etc/fstab and was able to mount the drive using the root account, but not a regular user. My other FC machines recognize the presence of a cdrom and mount it automatically and that is what I would prefer to do. Any ideas?
