/dev/cdrom is just a symbolic link to wherever your CD-ROM really is. Type
ls -l /dev/cdrom to see where it's linked, and make sure its linked to the
right device. If you have IDE devices, hda is the Master device on the
Primary controller, hdb is the Slave device on the Primary controller, hdc
is the Master device on the Secondary controller and hdd is the Slave device
on the Secondary controller. So, if /dev/cdrom is linked to the Slave
device on the Secondary controller (hdd), but your cdrom is actually the
Slave device on the Primary controller (hdb), just change your /dev/cdrom
link(rm /dev/cdrom; ln -s /dev/hdb /dev/cdrom).

Subject: CD player won't!
Hello:
I recently installed Mandrake 7.0 and it went pretty well. One
annoyance is that the CD player won't work. It's Kscd 1.2.7. It isn't able
to recognize when I have a CD in the drive; it always thinks it's "ejected."
Under "settings", the device is set as /dev/cdrom, so this must be OK. I
know I can read CD's, because that's how I installed it, and automount works
for data CD's. Any ideas on what the problem could be?
Thanks in advance,
Vaughn Treude
