[newbie] cdrom drive problems

[Marc Resnick]

For some reason, my cdrom drive isn't working normally. When booting, it 
clicks for about the first 20 seconds. Also, I tried to boot from a CD, 
the Mandrake 10 Community disc, and it just loaded Lilo after about 10 
seconds of a black screen with a blinking underscore. The other day it 
didn't open until I umounted then mounted it.

The only info I have about it is what I got from harddrake:

Bus: ?ide

Drive capacity: ?burner DVD

Channel: ?secondary

New devfs device: ?/dev/ide/host0/bus1/target0/lun0/cd

Old device file: ?/dev/hdc

Media class: ?cdrom

And that it's supermounted, not that I really know what that is.

Thanks in Advance,
Marc
