This, my fried is where some vi-age is required. For permament add something like this to /etc/fstab /dev/scd0 /mnt/usbcd iso9660 user,noauto 0 0 Or, you can type this (as root) whenever you feel like mounting it: mount -t iso9660 /dev/scd0 /mnt/usbcd You will have to mkdir /mnt/usbcd -- or you can mount it to whatever directory of your choosing. - Chris [EMAIL PROTECTED] pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug

[SLUG] Questions on hotplug.
Many thanks for the reply. =+-> As root, check to see if the hotplug process is running. I assume that, at root, I simply type hotplug? I'm not sure because the manual for hotplug is beyond my comprehension. It seems to be saying (in the syntax) that I type hotplug and then pipe it to NAME, where NAME is the agent that's been connected by hotplug. If I'm right, then it's a circular argument, because I don't know where (or under what name) hotplug has connected the burner. I have one other question. If I want to burn a CD at the end of a work session, I will have to connect the burner whilst the computer is still on, ie., a warm connection. Will hotplug wear this?
