For the burner you should make sure your also doing scsi emulation, I assume this is an IDE cdrom drive. In your /etc/lilo.conf file, make sure you have the append option hd?=ide-scsi, here is a copy of my /etc/lilo.conf file. I am also assuming your using lilo. If not, you need to make sure your grub has the option.<BR>

my fstab has ro instead of rw. I would imagine that is
read write? Here is what I have.
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom udf,iso9660
noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto,owner,kudzu 0 0
Looks like my floppy is root only too although I
haven't actually tried it out to see for sure.
If I just change owner to user and maybe ro to rw,
that should do the trick. I also wonder why the howto
info I got earlier is a completely different way than
an fstab edit? Thanks.
