I installed mandrake 7.1 from the drive fine, so it recognizes it and mounts it for installation. Afterward, when it is installed it will not mount. It returns '/dev/cdrom is an invalid block device'. Hardware: Pioneer 105S ATAPI DVD 10x/40x, (attempting to mount as /dev/cdrom) SAF SpeedWriter+ 2x/2x/4x, (mounting as /dev/cdrom2) 3.5" 1.44MB, (mounting as /dev/fd0) 5.25" 1.2MB, (mounting as /dev/fd1) 26GB Maxtor Diamond something or other HD (mounting as /dev/hdb) 4GB Western Digital (mounting as /dev/hdc). Athlon 800, w/ Asus KV motherboard (with KX-133 chipset), Geforce DDR, Soundblaster Live!, 3 Com NIC card, Logitech Wheel mouse, etc., etc. All excited about leaving Windows forever, but I just can't get the dang DVD to mount. I'm not even asking to watch a DVD on it, I just want to be able to read files on it. Is it something with /etc/fstab, or some other, driver related thing? Thank You, John Seebold
