(/media/dvd, /media/cdrom, ect. /mnt/dvd, /mnt/cdrom, ect.) To find out if they do or do nor exist run "ls -al /mnt" and "ls -al /media" If they do not exist create the mount points in /mnt and /media. mkdir -p /mnt/cdrom mkdir -p /mnt/dvd mkdir -p /mnt/dvdrw mkdir -p /media/cdrom mkdir -p /media/dvd and so forth and so on. Also make sure your user is added to media related groups such as cdrom, video, audio ect. in the /etc/groups file. If you are using KDE you could use kuser for a GUI method to do so, or the like GUI app for Gnome, XFCE, ect. >> I can not remember if wheezy is still using the older udev >> where a file is created along this path: >> /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-cd.rules >> open the file and look to see if your device is listed properly. > > Yes it's listed properly. > Look at this file closely to take note of the mount points for the device and make sure they do in fact exist on the filesystem as I said earlier in post.
