If not, he'll need to either load the modules or compile into the kernel. A more preferable method is to change the options within the /etc/fstab file from "owner" to "user" so that a non-admin user can use it. Something similar to: /dev/scd0 /usbcdrw iso9660 noauto,user,exec 0 0 Syntax could be wrong, as I have never attempted to mount a USB CD-Rom device. BTW, if the CD-Rom has blank media in it you won't be able to mount it. It's treated just as if he's trying to mount a CD-Rom drive without media. -- -Shawn -Nemo me impune lacessit.
