Re: Unable to mount cdrom

     Although it's not a common problem, it could be that /dev/cdrom is a 
symbolic link to the wrong device.  As an example of a correct symbolic
link, on my computer the command "ls -l /dev/cdrom" shows
... /dev/cdrom -> /dev/hdd
and hdd is correct because "cat /proc/ide/hdd/media" shows "cdrom".
If instead it had been hdc that had the cdrom, I would have had to
change /dev/cdrom to be a symbolic link to /dev/hdc.
