ah forgot to mention that one, same as when i doesn't specify a
filesystem, tells me to use a correct -t flag....

burnt that one my self, its iso9660 and its readable by my main comp and
another laptop under windows (didn't maanged yet to get a linux booting
    on that one.... Medion sim 2010 in case someone has some hints...)

first testing reading, writing comes after the thing recognizes the
drive :D

nah, it mounts nothing....
laptop:~# cat /etc/mtab 
/dev/hda7 / ext2 rw,errors=remount-ro 0 0
proc /proc proc rw 0 0
sysfs /sys sysfs rw 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts rw,gid=5,mode=620 0 0
tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs rw 0 0
/dev/hda1 /boot ext2 rw,errors=remount-ro 0 0
/dev/hda5 /tmp ext2 rw 0 0
/dev/hda6 /var/log ext2 rw 0 0
usbfs /proc/bus/usb usbfs rw 0 0

don't know why it claims to be busy.... usually i have that kind of
error with driver problems, but here i don't see what could go wrong...

tryed with another mount point same error.....
hmm strange, it also makes the exact same error when i forgot to close
the lid.... seems it doesn't even got to chekc if there's actually a
disk in the drive....

noted also that on closing the lid, the HD led and the led on the CD-lid
blinked in the same rythm for several seconds....

but still nothing to see in /etc/mtab or with the df command....
