Check if you have permission to access the device. If you use ide-scsi
emulation for the drive, add yourself to the cdrom group, log out and
in again. If you don't use ide-scsi emulation, either activate it, or
change ownership for the device file from root.disk to root.cdrom. Do
not add yourself to the disk group instead. If you still have problems,
give us the complete error message.
