    Mount DVD drive

    Hy to all!

    I'm new here and I need some help..... I'm running Debian and it doesn't mount my dvd drive.
    I introduced this: mount /dev/dvdrw /mnt/dvd
    and it gave me:
    mount: block device /dev/hdb is write-protected, mounting read-only
    mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdb,
    missing codepage or helper program, or other error
    In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
    dmesg | tail or so


    Thanks!

    hi

    mount your dvd disks this way
    mount -t iso9660 /dev/dvdrw /mnt/dvd

    or add a permanent line into your /etc/fstab file

    /dev/dvdrw /mnt/dvd iso9660,udf ro,user 0 0

    and read

    man fstab
    man mount
