I applogize, I should specify that I have a standard CDROM and a CDRW.

My CDROM works currently, the cdrom entry is in my fstab, and I have a directory of /cdrom.
When I type
eject cdrom
My CDROM door opens.

When I try to
eject cdrw
, I get the following:

root@box1:/# eject cdrw
eject: unable to open `/dev/scd1'
root@box1:/#
I did try to follow your cue. I did ln -sf /dev/scd1 /cdrw and there was already a /cdrw directory, to no avail.

Any further ideas??

Thanks
