Hello all-
I'm use to the supermount cdrom from the redhat-mandrake linux linux
How do I mount the cdrom drive? I see a /cdrom under root, but no /mnt/cdrom?
Any help will be appreciated!

--If you need to "mount" the cdrom, then you must be running from the HD. Otherwise, all you have to do is ' ls /cdrom '.
Try (as root of course) :
' mkdir /mnt/cdrom ' == JIC
' mount /dev/scd0 /mnt/cdrom -oro '
' ls /mnt/cdrom '
--BTW, you can also try mounting sr0, and /dev/cdrom. The mount point you use can also be any existing directory name. (i.e. you can ' mount /dev/scd0 /usr ' -- but I wouldn't try it if I were you.)

The cdrom I booted from works though.
Also when I try to configure the printer it comes back, "Printer list not found"
Thanks for any help. I appreciate it.
PS I have tried the above. Mkdir and it says file exists.
If I mkdir /ramdisk/floppy
mount /dev/fd0 /ramdisk/floppy
then change icon properties - url for the icon it works
--Interesting... You might want to fwd that on to Klaus.

I still am not finding any printer drivers though. Any suggestions about that? Thank you.
Printer drivers are there. I went into the KDE menu and found them under Knoppix configure printer. I found my printer but I'm out of black ink at the moment and can't tell you if the CUPS driver works. If your printer isn't listed maybe you can download a linux driver and put it on your HD to be pulled up and installed each time you're in Knoppix.
