Hello everybody! I am new to Gentoo. I have installed Gentoo 2005.0 on my laptop (hp pavilion ze4288, AMD Mobile XP 2200, 512 MB, 30 GB harddisk, Toshiba CD-Rom) and everything is looking good, but now I realised that I do not have any access to my CD-Rom device as a normal user.
This is my /etc/fstab: /dev/hda1 /boot ext2 defaults,noatime 1 2 /dev/hda3 / ext3 noatime 0 1 /dev/hda2 none swap sw 0 0 /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom auto users,noauto,rw 0 0 /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto 0 0 none /proc proc defaults 0 0 none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 I added a user with these options: useradd paul -m -G audio,cdrom,floppy,usb,video,wheel,users passwd paul [ ... ] When I try to mount the device with: paul # mount /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom the system gives back: mount: only root can do that! Can anybody help me with this? I would really appreciate any hints. Thanks in advance! Kind regards, Nelly -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
