First off, some list etticate ;o) Since a mailing list is intended to be a place of public discussion, it is proper to reply to the list rather than directly to an individual - no need to CC anyone either (unless they specifically request it), since most people who post to the list are already subscribed and dont need a 2nd copy.

This means that you refer to it using a scsi device (/dev/scd0) name rather than an ide device name (/dev/hdd). So, bearing that in mind, can you see what might be wrong about your /etc/fstab file? you've got: # device mount point fs type options dump pass #-------- ------------- -------- -------- ---- ----- /dev/hdd /mnt/cdrw udf,iso9660 noauto,user,ro 0 0 what you probably want is: # device mount point fs type options dump pass #-------- ------------- -------- -------- ---- ----- /dev/scd0 /mnt/cdrw udf,iso9660 noauto,user,ro 0 0 that should allow you to mount your CD-ROM However, I doubt any of this has anything to do with your nautilus CD-creator problem. At what point is it "not seeing" your CD-RW drive? Only in Nautilus CD-creator? Can you mount the drive, or play CDs with it? What is the output of the following commands?: cdrecord -scanbus cdrecord -scanbus dev=ATAPI What have you done to investigate the problem to date? -davidc -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
