one thing you could look at is mounting by hand from the console. First check that /mnt/cdrom and /mnt/cdrw exist ( ls /mnt ) if they do then just try the basic #> mount /dev/hdd /mnt/cdrom #> mount /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrw see if that works.

Can you give a listing of Dmesg?? #> dmesg (at the console prompt Have a good one -- Alan & Jan Harding Tel: 07715 539272 "One by one the penguins are stealing my sanity" -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
