Yuck. Easier to try all four devices: # mount /dev/hdd /mnt/cdrom # mount /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom # mount /dev/hdb /mnt/cdrom # mount /dev/hda /mnt/cdrom Also, see output of # dmesg to check for a CDROM detection line that would tell you, e.g. hdc: COMPAQ PD-1 LF-1195C, ATAPI CDROM drive This tells me it's on /dev/hdc Peter
