Already reported a similar probelm with the built in CD on my Dell Inspiron laptop. I have to do a command (doesn't seem to matter if it is 'ls' or anything else) right down the /dev IDE bus chain until a reach a directory which apparently has now entries. But once the 'ls', or whatever, has been performed on this directory the device magically appears in it and I can now mount the CD !!!
