Try changing the line that reads: /dev/cdrom /mnt/sr0 iso9660 roo,user,noauto,exec 0 0 to: /dev/sr0 /mnt/cdrom iso9660 rw,user,noauto,exec 0 0
if you have /dev/cdrom linked to /dev/sr0 then you can change the first part of that line to /dev/cdrom. If you are using a newer distro, you will need to link /dev/cdrom to /dev/scd0. Here's a few steps and commands that you will need. cd /dev ll cdrom #this will tell you what it is linked to. If it's wrong, then rm cdrom #if you are using an older distro use this command to relink ln -s /dev/sr0 cdrom #if you are using a new distro use this command ln -s /dev/scd0 cdrom Make sure that you have the appropriate directory created in /mnt that is in /etc/fstab.
