Is it possible to mount a cdrom and keep the write permissions set
on the mount point.

The mount point gets the permissions set to drwxr-xr-x

If i "mount -w" i get:

mount: block device /dev/cdrom is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: block device /dev/cdrom is not permitted on its filesystem


I can get all the files on the cdrom to maintain write permissions
but not the directory.

Re-writing the cdrom is not a problem, but i can't rewrite the 
program thats accessing the files and it checks for a writable
directory when it reads the files in.


Thanks
Carl
