Hi After installing debian sarge (net install) and upgrading to testing my CD-ROM and CD-writer were correctly added to /etc/fstab: /dev/hdc /media/cdrom0 iso9660 ro,user,noauto 0 0 /dev/hdd /media/cdrom1 iso9660 ro,user,noauto 0 0
However in /media there was only a 'corrupted' symlink /media/cdrom to /media/cdrom0. /media/cdrom0 and /media/cdrom1 didn't exist. I added these directories manually (as root) so /media/ now looks like: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls -lh /media/ total 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 2004-12-17 20:12 cdrom -> cdrom0 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 48 2004-12-30 19:35 cdrom0 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 48 2004-12-30 19:35 cdrom1 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 2004-12-17 20:12 floppy -> floppy0 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 48 2004-12-17 20:12 floppy0 I can mount CD's with mount /media/cdrom but I have to remember to use ls -lh /media/cdrom0 to display the CD's contents because ls -lh /media/cdrom simply shows: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls -lh /media/cdrom lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 2004-12-17 20:12 /media/cdrom -> cdrom0 Is there a reason why I shouldn't remove the symlink /media/cdrom so I can edit the dirs in /media to: drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 48 2004-12-30 19:35 cdrom drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 48 2004-12-30 19:35 cdwriter Obviously I would have to edit /etc/fstab to: /dev/hdc /media/cdrom iso9660 ro,user,noauto 0 0 /dev/hdd /media/cdwriter iso9660 ro,user,noauto 0 0 Are there apps that look for /media/cdrom(0|1) that would break after these changes?
