Hi,

This'll surely be a really novice question, but I'd like to get it right in one go, and RTFM-ing using Google somehow didn't produce uniform enough results for my likings. :)

The situation: I just installed FreeBSD 5.4-Release AMD64 on my new machine (though the question is most likely not specific to the AMD64 version, I guess), and upon installation time the machine had a DVD-ROM / CD-RW drive. Yesterday I received a new drive, being a DVD-RW drive, and I replaced the previous one with the new one. O.k., no problem so far, and the BIOS seems to properly identify the drive.

When booting the machine, the drive is -I think- identified as "DVDW" as /dev/acd0, and the mountpoint it (re!)uses is /cdrom.

Now, this is where the issue lies. When putting a CD-ROM in the drive, and trying to access it through the /cdrom mountpoint I get an empty directory listing (not correct) and when manually trying to do the following:
mount /dev/acd0 /cdrom
Try
mount_cd9660 /dev/acd0 /cdrom

Regards,

Uli.
