I tried -> mount -r -t mfs /dev/cd0a /cdrom , this seemed to cause my reader to go busing for a second but I still could not access the files on my cdrom when I went to the /cdrom directory. I even typed mount and the list of mounted items did not show the cdrom. I've tried all that I could think of, could someone please help me out. my address is: gokings@netcom.com thanks, Russell Marrash
