I didn't see this one come through, even though I have recieved others.
Sorry if it's a repost.

No it didn't exist I used "mkdir /mnt/cdrom" as
root and in directory /home/kent.
Now when I use the command mount /mnt/cdrom"
the cdrom is activated but I don't see
anything on my screen. When I use "ls" I get:
$ ls -l /mnt/cdrom
total 0
So close but....?

My CD's have always worked with my speakers
while in windows. I assume the volume is
OK if I hear a "error" beep. I have nerver
come across a reference as to how to
check the volume setting in Linux. Where do I
access that?
