Desktop has two icons  DVD (hdc)(unmounted DVD) and DVD-ROM Device_1
Dvd will not mount as can't find filesystem. DVD-ROM Device_1 won't
mount as can't find/media/cdrom_dvd in etc/fstab or /etc/mstab  But I
can read and play DVD's and CD's.  I've been trying various settings in
fstab but so far no luck.  Any suggestions.  Tnx



Is DMA for the drive turned on????
As root from the console or xterm session type; hdparm /dev/hdc

Disable the service kudzu; chkconfig --levels 345 kudzu off

Sample /etc/fstab entry;

/dev/hdc      /media/cdrecorder    auto    exec,noauto,users,ro 0 0

Well, this is really weird! As root, hdparm and chkconfig - commands not found. DMA on? Unknown. changed fstab to your sample, reboot comes back with kudzu change to /media/cdrom7 from /media/cdrecorder.Appreciate help here, tnx
