Hi

When I do "dmesg | grep -i cdrom" I get nothing

[woner@localhost woner]$ ln -s /dev/hdb /dev/cdrom
ln: creating symbolic link `/dev/cdrom' to `/dev/hdb':
Permission denied
[woner@localhost woner]$ su
Password:
[root@localhost woner]# ln -s /dev/hdb /dev/cdrom
[root@localhost woner]# mount /mnt/cdrom
mount: /dev/cdrom is not a valid block device


Thanks
Rebel
