CD-RW support



Hi,

I'm trying to make use of the second CD drive (CD-RW) in my Dell Dimension
XPS T700r. Here is what I added to my /etc/fstab file:

/dev/cdrom2	/cdrom2		iso9660 defaults,rw,user,noauto		0	0

This lets me *access* the drive ok, but when I try to mount it I get the
familiar

mount: block device /dev/cdrom2 is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/cdrom2,
       or too many mounted file systems

I'm assuming the second line is because the CD-RW disc I put in is
formatted [incorrectly]; however, what do I do to change the
write-protection of the device?

Thank you for any help,

Glenn
