#100562 — python 3.4, os.walk does not walk into cdroms

Hello all,

 I have a problem with os.walk - it does not walk into a mounted cdrom, I do not see the cdrom in the walk at all.
What can I do to walk into cdrom?

Thanks,
        Siegfried

1. Are you sure that the directory tree contains the actual mount point,
not just a symlink to it? os.walk() doesn't follow symlinks unless
followlinks=True is given explicitly.

2. Have you tried using the onerror= parameter to report errors? The
default is to silently ignore errors from os.listdir().
