I must be doing something wrong: > > jage@Violet:~$ sudo mount -o exec /dev/cdrom /media > [sudo] password for jage: > mount: /dev/sr0: unknown device > jage@Violet:~$ sudo mount -o exec /dev/cdrom /media/QWBASMMIR1F > mount: block device /dev/sr0 is write-protected, mounting read-only > mount: /dev/sr0 already mounted or /media/QWBASMMIR1F busy > mount: according to mtab, /dev/sr0 is already mounted on /media/QWBASMMIR1F > jage@Violet:~$ umount /media/QWBASMMIR1F > jage@Violet:~$ sudo mount -o exec /dev/cdrom /media/QWBASMMIR1F > mount: mount point /media/QWBASMMIR1F does not exist > jage@Violet:~$ sudo mount -o exec /dev/cdrom /media > mount: block device /dev/sr0 is write-protected, mounting read-only > jage@Violet:~$ > There is no entry in fstab for the cdrom and it automounts under /media/{MEDIA.NAME} So I'm back to not sure how to mount the CD as executable.
