Are you sure it's iso9660?&nbsp;&nbsp;What does the CDROM contain that you are trying to mount?

Make sure your Linux kernel is compiled with Microsoft Joliet and ISO9660 format. Goto &quot;/usr/src/linux&quot; and type &quot;make menuconfig&quot; and check the current kernel configurations.<br><br>--Moonshi<br>icq: 2595480
