Hi Saqeb, I got some of my problems solved. But I face some new once. Firstly My cd rom doesn't mount with the /dev/cdrom command with mount. What is the problem. It says invalid device /dev/cdrom. I tried to read the fstab file but couldn't get any thing out of it. By the way if there is some one who can send me the zip archive of gnu emacs manual please send it at krmane@rediffmail.com so that I can read it of line too. Thanks.
