cdrom - device not configured error

[eric at iteso.mx]

You can try:

mount -t cd9660 /dev/acd0c /mnt

and see what happend!

try also /dev/acd0a just in case.

cd to the /mnt directorio an type "ls" see what happend then.

hope this helps!

greetings from Merida, Yucatan, Mexico.

P.D. try to unmount fist (in case the cd is already mounted with other 
filesystem), an the mount again.
