Thanks Harry,
I have no 'dvd' entry in /dev so I used 'mkdir dvd' but keep getting the
message that
'mount point /dev/dvd does not exist'. Previously (following someone
from deb-user) I did
rm -rf /dev/dvd
ln -s /dev/hdc /mnt/dvd
with no luck.
Similarly, I get
> Tux:~# mount /cdrw
> mount: mount point /cdrw does not exist
How does one create mount-points ?
Is there an automounting option for DVD's in gnome ?
[... and completely off-topic - how does one get a gmial account ?]
