Is this a data or audio CD (audio CDs can't be mounted, only played)? Is
it possible to test with another OS on the same hardware?

Hello,

As I've already said, it works in windows and mac. I'll try changing the cable, but since it works in windows and mac I doubt the cable is at fault. I've tried audio and data cds and DVDs.

Two weeks ago, I reported a similar issue (in this case dmesg didn't give any output) [1]. My cdrom went to dead [2], but after resurrected.

We have at least 3 lg cdrom writters which have problems reading cds inside debian, but our machines boot fine from these cds.
