Hi!  I am using Mandrake 7.01 with VMware 2.0.1, with a guest OS of Win98.  Anyway, I tried to install the OS but I cant access my cd-rom????  What gives?  This is the error message I get.  I installed a fresh Mandrake 7 and I still got the same problem.  Anyone ever get this problem with VMware?

                CDROM: '/dev/cdrom' exists, but does not appear to be a CDROM device.  Error connecting the CDROM device.

What does this mean?  Please help?  I hope I didnt waste my $99 dollars,
just because I cant access my cdrom drive. =(

I also changed the configuration to /mnt/cdrom just in case but I still
get the same problem. =(  Please help!

Thanks!
