Is it harddrake? Or dmesg? I am beginning to think that you may need to reinstall linux. What version are you running? Try typing mount -a as root in a terminal. Then check /mnt/hdb when you have a cd in the drive. If it's empty or not accessible, then there is something wrong. Oh ya, what is your /dev/scd0? Do you have another scsi device that isn't a cd? If you do, change your fstab so that the dev=/dev/scd0 becomes /dev/scd1.
