How can I make sure that non-privilaged users can mount /dev/cdrom too?
It used to work this way, but not any more (after I started treating
/dev/hdc (cdrom) as a scsi device using scsi emulation)
Thanks

Add the keyword option "user" in /etc/fstab relating to cdrom.
For eg, my /etc/fstab says,
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom iso9660 ro,nosuid,noauto,exec,user,nodev 0 0

1. mount /mnt/cdrom ==> mount: the kernel does not recognize /dev/cdrom as a block device
Hello,
I'm in trouble again. My cdrom on RH6.0 used to mount using command-line
or linuxconf.
Now suddenly its stopped working - when I try to mount using "mount
/mnt/cdrom" I
get rebuffed with :
#mount /mnt/cdrom
mount: the kernel does not recognize /dev/cdrom as a block device
(maybe 'insmod driver'? )
# insmod iso9660
insmod: iso9660: no module by that name found.
Linuxconf tells me its mounted successfully but obviously is failing in the
background.
It is unfortunate for me that Linux is giving me these problems as I am only
a beginner
really. sigh!
thanks for expert advice...
