If this is plain vanilla 7.2 (i.e., WITHOUT any of the many errata updates released by RH) then one of the early errata issued for 7.2 will fix your problem. Other than this particular problem, there are many, many, many others, I urge you to download and install all of htem (or sign up for up2date service and let it do the job for you). > re /dev/cdrom and then > > ln -s /dev/hdd /dev/cdrom > > after that i tried to mount it again and now it is saying > > mount: Special device /dev/cdrom does not exist. > > How can I use my cdrom ?
