Mounting CDs

Hi, Andrew.

Actually, I have two CD-ROMs on the system, but I copied the wrong error
message into my e-mail.  That error applies both to /mnt/cdrom and /mnt/
cdrom1.

What I was trying to do was to use the Nautilus CD burning facility to
copy tracks from one CD and burn them on to another.  I put the disc in,
and I could hear the drive spinning as if it was mounted, but I couldn't
access anything, and I kept getting that error.

I hope that makes sense now.  Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,

Brian
