It recognized the cdrom but the files had changed. Harddrake listed: new devfs device: /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/cd; old device file: /dev/scd0. The old device file was the default setup when I installed md9.1. I don't what caused the change. When trying to access I get the error message could not enter /mnt/cdrom. There were some changes to the fstab file. I was going to change the file where you suggested but didn't have time and now I don't know how to proceed from the command line. I am using a laptop xp system now to correspond(definitely not preferred) Thanks for the response. <unquote>
John, when you reply to an email with a sig, remove it. The two -- are treated as separators and everything below gets removed when you try to reply, in kmail and a number of other mail clients. It should be possible to change the fstab with vi. I'm no expert, but you can get by in emergencies with only a very few commands. Launch it with vi fstab (you'll need to be root, of course) To go to edit mode you can choose a - for append i - for insert To for insert here. Navigate with arrows When you've done you go back to command mode with Esc Save your work with :w and quit :q HTH Anne
