I have just broke down and installed Mandrake 9.0 on my main home pc. Its an HP XE746 with an HP CDRW. I have never mount/umounted anything and I am having a hard time getting my CDROM to work, at least with music anyway. I put my CD in the drive and spins and nothing happens. I use konquerer to see what is in the drive and it stated that the drive is locked and I do not have access...umm I am root running in graphical mode I think I have all the access I shuold need. I have tried mount /mnt/cdrom nothing happens and even umount /mnt/cdrom. This is the output of the mount command: > > You don't need to mount audio CDs.
