[olug] cdrom

[Dave Burchell]

Tell us more.  What is the exact error you get from "mount"?  Did you
change anything at all about your software?  Is it a SCSI or an IDE
CDROM drive?  What color is the faceplate? :-)

When installing/configuring PC hardware, I will typically do something
oafish, such as plugging a cable in backwards or improperly setting the
SCSI id or IDE master/slave jumpers.  Check those common mistakes.  If
it is an IDE CDROM drive: did you plug the devices in to the same IDE
headers as before?  (That is, primary and secondary, master and slave.)
