Re: How do I setup /dev/cdrom ?



First, go into /dev and do a "ls -l cdrom" and see where the symbolic link is
pointing to.

If your CD-ROM is the slave off from the primary controller, then it will be
known as /dev/hdb.

If the symbolic link is missing, or pointing to some other device than what your
CD-ROM is on, then simple delete it (if needed) and recreate another one using
something like "ln -s <real device> <link name>", or "ln -s /dev/hdb /dev/cdrom".
