The filesystem type, and the module being used isn't really relevant to the problem you're reporting. Does this happen with any CD, or just that one? If its just that one, i'd suggest attempting to mount it in a different box to see if the behavior changes. Also, you should check dmesg and/or messages for additional errors. You can also try using the -v switch with cp for additional verbosity. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Lonni J Friedman [EMAIL PROTECTED] Linux Step-by-step & TyGeMo http://netllama.ipfox.com _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc -> http://smtp.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
