Should be "iso9660", not "is09660". Also, could your "/dev/cdrom" be a symlink to "/dev/hdc"? I believe you would want the line to look more like: /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,ro.... /dev/hdc should be the first drive on the second IDE port, which is the usual place to plug in a CD-ROM drive. >I have dev/cdrom device and /mnt/cdrom directory but still it looks for >/dev/hdc somewhere. > >Other problems: too many, I will send tomorrow, it's 4:00 am here.
