Try using /dev/acd0. If you run the following command as root, does it work? (there should be a data CD in the drive btw, not a music CD) mount -t cd9660 /dev/acd0 /cdrom > > > And I tried inserting a cd with musicfiles and find it from xmms, but > > > there was nothing in /cdrom. > > > > Playing music is very different from mounting, so that's perfectly normal. > > > > So what should I do to play musicfiles from cd? .mp3, .sid and so on.. Music encoded as .mp3 sits on a data CD (usually CD-ROM mode 1), and should be mounted first. See above. Regular music CDs are written in different format (CD-DA). You do not have to mount these.
