Cannot mount my CD drives

Hi all,

I have a problem with my CDROM drives. Because I want to burn with my IDE CDR, I use my CDROM drives with the ide-scsi emulation. Burning CDs works great, but since I use this emulation, I can't mount my drives.

Everytime I try it, I get the following message:

I think the device should be something like /dev/sr0,
look at dmesg to find out witch device youre using....

Hmm... Even if I use "/dev/sr0" I get the same error. I notice that CD drive begins to work, but it cannot be mounted...

Greets, Matthias

Ok, that was it. Shame on me

It seems the problem was, that I ruined a CD with cdbakeoven and so I could not mount it ...

thx a lot, Matthias

Hrm. I had the same problem, but my drive is a combo dvd/cdrw/cdr/cd.

I had to use /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 to make it work.
