RCdOF> []s Ricardo Castanho This is normal, because you tell mount where to mount, but it does not know what to mount. Normally mount your_device_name to_where_you_want_to_mount Assuming your cdrom is /dev/hdb , and you want to mount it to /mnt/cdrom, and nothing is "already" mounted to /mnt/cdrom, the correct command is mount /dev/hdb /mnt/cdrom I dont think you will even need to define the type, but if you will want or need mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdb /mnt/cdrom will be the answer :) Onur Kucuk _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
