That sounds like the next logical step. Don't worry I'm not ready to give up on my linux experiment quite yet. I just need to figure out a way to burn the iso  for 8.10.02 since I can't get my DVD burner to work. Papparonny thank you for the help, hopefully this the new release will fix my problem. big_smile

I put the live CD in and was going to boot up with it as I stated before. But before I could do that I checked one more time in file manager, and of course this cd SHOWS up. BUt when I click on it gives me this error
"unable to mount device"
"The volume "crunchbang-lite-8.10.01" uses the iso9660 file system which is not supported by your system"

I'm sure that is what the error  "UNA...VICE" is also. So what file system should it be?

/media/cdrom is a link to /media/cdrom0. I'm starting to wonder if it is my DVD drive? I'm going to boot up and run off my live cd, then see if I can see the drive.

ok I right clicked on media and then prop.

#5 Re: Help & Support (Stable) » DVD ROM Not working » 2009-01-18 03:50:26

I think it is a link? it has a little arrow on it. It also is root:root

#6 Re: Help & Support (Stable) » DVD ROM Not working » 2009-01-18 03:33:35

ya there is only one. I just tried to remove the extra line  but still no good sad My media has three, cdrom, cdrom0, cdrom1 and my dev/scd0 is the same as yours.

no luck with a DVD, audio CD, or data CD

Sorry, it is a burner. I tried what you put up anyway just for the hell of it and I got the same error. I also tried rw, but also no good. I don't know  if this will help but I used dmesg | tail and got this

OK I fixed the typo and changed auto to udf. here is what I have now.....

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point>   <type>  <options>       <dump>  <pass>
proc            /proc           proc    defaults        0       0
# /dev/sdb1

# /dev/sdb5
UUID=e662b4de-8148-4ce4-8ed9-ef676115ca8e none            swap    sw              0       0

/dev/scd1       /media/cdrom1   udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0       0

I still get the same error when I try to mount the DVD rom....

block device /dev/scd0 is write-protected, mounting read-only

I checked the permission for /dev/scd0 and it is read/write for owner and group. What should it be?

#10 Re: Help & Support (Stable) » DVD ROM Not working » 2009-01-17 15:33:10

Good catch I'll fix that when I get off work. I actually started with what you wrote
"/dev/scd0       /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0       0"
I was trying some diffrent things last night, and what I put up is what I had before I gave up and went to bed wink

I see have a few lookers but no biters smile Well after diggin around the web for a couple hours I found that maybe my fstab file is not configured right? Here is a look at it

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point>   <type>  <options>       <dump>  <pass>
proc            /proc           proc    defaults        0       0
# /dev/sdb1
UUID=1573c6ca-0641-440c-a631-64807dd7abf8 /               ext3    relatime,errors=remount-ro 0       1
# /dev/sdb5
UUID=e662b4de-8148-4ce4-8ed9-ef676115ca8e none            swap    sw              0       0
/dev/scd0       /meida/cdrom0   auto,iso9960 user,rw,noauto,exec,utf8 0       0
/dev/scd1       /media/cdrom1   auto,iso9660 user,rw,noauto,exec,utf8 0       0

I also tried to manually mount it and this is what I get

bryan@bryan-desktop:/etc$ sudo mount /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0
[sudo] password for bryan:
mount: block device /dev/scd0 is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: you must specify the filesystem type

Any help would really be appreciated.

I have been running #! for about a week and didn't even realize my LG DVD-Rom was not working! I used this drive to load #! so it was working. There are three CD-rom folders in my media  folder, I assume that this is where I go to find the data that is on the disk?  They are all empty. When I try to open my media directory from  the tree on the left of the file manager I get a little window that says "UNA...VICE" I close this and I get it again, I close it a second time and I get a window that says "directory doesn't exist". I'm not sure what to do, I'm a linux newbie so any help would be appreciated.
