Awesome! I checked my fstab file and saw the cdrom entry. It was listed as follows: /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,owner,ro 0 0 I'm not quite sure what all of that means, but I assumed that it was using iso9660 by default. So I did try specifying udf as the file system and it worked! When I mounted the cd, linux gave me a message about it being read only. Does anyone know if there is a way to move files to my cd? I'm using a HP cd writer. Thanks for the tips. -- Rob ----- Original Message ----- From: "Steve Holmes" <steve@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> Sent: Thursday, February 26, 2004 3:02 PM Subject: Re: removeable disks > What tools did you use to make this CD in the first place?
