Yeh we have that so,
[root@saturn /root]# mount /dev/cdrom -t iso9660 /mnt/cdrom
mount: block device /dev/cdrom is write-protected, mounting read-only
Then it hangs for ever.....
Is this a clue?
[root@saturn /root]# df /mnt/cdrom
Filesystem 1k-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda5 385891 87940 278020 24% /
Which is my / partition
