Hello -
I just installed Mandrake (7.0, because I haven't gotten the chance to upgrade) and I can't get it to read from my CD-RW. Lothar sees my CD-RW, but whenever I click on the desktop icon to open my CD-Rom, it says that it can't be mounted. I'm thinking that this might have something to do with the fact that this is a CD-RW, and it may be checking for a CD-Rom... if you can't tell I'm an absolute newbie to Linux (as I may have shown with my last comment
TIA
