Yes, I tried it by hand and got the same message. /cdrw does exist. I tried the CD-R that contains the iso for Debian, which I used to install on this computer, as well as my Neverwinter Nights CD, but all got the same result.

Steve,
Have you tried it by hand?
as root:
mount /dev/hdd /cdrw
does the /cdrw directory exist? Try a commerical cd like the distros copy. Maybe you burned a coaster.

When I use /dev/hdd (the ide location of the drive) I get
this when I try to mount the drive:
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on
/dev/hdd,
or too many mounted file systems
(could this be the IDE device where you in fact
use
ide-scsi so that sr0 or sda or so is needed?)
My fstab entry is this: /dev/hdd /cdrw iso9660 ro,user,noauto 0 0
I only have 8 file systems listed and not all of them are mounted.
Thanks, Steve

Steve,
It only looks like a SCSI device to cdrecord. Its still located at /dev/hd? where ? is the ide location ide0 - master is a ( /dev/hda ), ide0 - slave is b (/dev/hdb), etc. You should be able to mount the device by using
the
/dev/hd? device normally.

Hello,
I've recently gotten my CD-RW drive setup (using
ide-scsi). cd-record -scanbus tells me it's located at /dev/sg0 (ran it as
non-root to get me the permissions error so it would list the device). Setting up /etc/fstab with /dev/sg0 as the device and /cdrw as the
mount point (I copied my /dev/cdrom entry and modified it). Mounting
of
course tells me that /dev/sg0 is not a valid block device. A google
search didn't turn up much except telling me about mknod, but the man
page is a bit too cryptic for my liking. How do I make /dev/sg0 a
block device or what other method can I use so I can read a CD-RW disc
in
a 2.4 kernel?
Thanks, Steve
