Brian, Once more, please confirm /etc/grub.conf contains an hdc= entry. Then, as root create this symlink: # ln -s /dev/scd0 /dev/cdrom With /dev/cdrom now defined, this line should work in your /etc/fstab: /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom udf,iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0 The 'udf' entry is new for RH9, and largely optional. You might also want to change 'owner' to 'user'. Naturally the /mnt/cdrom mount point must also exist: # ls -l /mnt | grep cdrom drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 May 28 19:25 cdrom If it's not there... # mkdir /mnt/cdrom # chmod 755 /mnt/cdrom Then check the /proc/scsi directory for the proper entries. I have an IDE CD-RW drive like you, plus an NCR-type SCSI card in my system: [root@xxxxxxx /]# ls -l /proc/scsi total 0 dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 May 29 23:33 ide-scsi dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 May 29 23:33 ncr53c8xx -r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 May 29 23:33 scsi dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 May 29 23:33 sg If you check the scsi file itself, it should look like this: [root@xxxxxxx /]# cat /proc/scsi/scsi Attached devices: Host: scsi1 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00 Vendor: TOSHIBA Model: DVD-ROM SD-R2002 Rev: 1129 Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 02 Note that IDE SCSI emulation in my system is detected after the native SCSI card, so my IDE channel is scsi1. In your system it will probably be scsi0. --Doc Savage Fairview Heights, IL On Thu, 2003-05-29 at 18:03, Bryan Pershall wrote: > Ok my fstab is almost the same minus the udf reference.
