1 I'm going by <http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?
2 part=1&chap=8> to mount the cdrom and cdrw drives, but it's failing.
3
4 There are two optical drives: a CD-ROM and a CD-R/W; both drives work
5 physically.
6
7 When I enter "mount /mnt/cdrom1" or "mount /mnt/cdrw1" then I hear a
8 drive spin before it fails, but "mount /dev/cdrom" doesn't cause any
9 noise. They all fail, error messages:
