I've got this message when I use cd-rw's in my cdrom drive, or when I use certain cdroms. It seems like the OS tries to read the cdrom and fails. It could be a bad sector on the cdrom, dust or something else. Joe > Aug 29 17:42:10 desktop kernel: acd0: FAILURE - READ_BIG timed out > Aug 29 1

Ok, That thing with mount is my stupidity (you are not trying to mount file system) people already commented on it. I looked again the book and in Chapter 18, section 18.6 first page they talk about ripping music (Duplicating CD) from the command line right after they talk about about burncd a

You are right! However the first page of the chapter 18 from the handbook (which I asked him to read first) does explain how to rip the Audio cd from the command line. My hunch was that everything is ok with his DVD rom and that the problem is some configuration file. Somebody also made a poin
