1 Hello All,
2
3 Whenever I mount my USB DVD writer or my SCSI cd-rom writer I always
4 get the following similar message for either device, root or otherwise.
5
6 mount /mnt/dvd/
7 mount: block device /dev/sr1 is write-protected, mounting read-only
8
9 Both devices in my fstab have 'noauto,user,rw' but still the write only
10 message.
11
12 Anyone give me any tips as to why and how to fix?
13
14 Thanks
15 Sean
