HD Install0 CDROM does not work.

After installing Knoppix to the hard drive, the CD-ROM stopped working Anyway to correct this? Thanks for your time! It is a CD-RW Drive.

ok, post contents of your /etc/fstab file here.
and output from
dmesg|grep CD also try replacing CD with sr, sg and sc.
note that Linux makes difeence between LarGe aNd SmaLl letters.
so CD and cd are NOT the same.
if you do that i will try to explain what to do and why.
the dmesg will give me info on your computer, that wil make it easyer for me to hep. and the fstab is a textfile that contain information how the computer should let you acess the drives.

Ahh, sorry, I kinda figured about the capital letters making a difference and stuff, I just have never used linux in the console so I don't know much of it, apt-get is about it :P.

CDROM:

ok if you look at output on those you see that there is talk about ide-scsi ATAPI, CD_ROM driver...


de-cd: passing drive hdc to ide-scsi emulation.
hdc: attached ide-scsi driver.
scsi0 : SCSI host adapter emulation for IDE ATAPI devices
Attached scsi CD-ROM sr0 at scsi0, channel 0, id 0, lun 0
sr0: scsi3-mmc drive: 32x/32x writer cd/rw xa/form2 cdda tray

and jumbled in all that see sr0 that is your CDburner as far as i know.
so replace /dev/cdrom with /dev/sr0 in fstab and it should work fine to mount (mount /cdrom)
to burn just use cdrecord in the console cdrecord -v speed=4 dev=0,0,0 /home/user/CD.iso
or k3b if you like the graphical way.
little more on burning .iso's in linux (the cript further down is FAST) http://www.knoppix.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=9703
