Subject: Unable to mount CDrom in 5.2, reading past threads is of no

Hello,

Im having issues in mounting a cdrom on my FreeBSD5.2
system both as root and non root user.  As root I
execute commands like this:


pluto# mount_cd9660 /dev/acd0 /cdrom
mount_cd9660: /dev/acd0: Invalid argument
pluto# mount_cd9660 /dev/acd0c /cdrom
mount_cd9660: /dev/acd0c: Invalid argument
pluto# mount_cd9660 /dev/acd0c /home/mount/cdrom/
mount_cd9660: /dev/acd0c: Invalid argument
pluto# mount_cd9660 /dev/acd0 /home/mount/cdrom/
mount_cd9660: /dev/acd0: Invalid argument

CD9660 support is enabled in my kernel and my
devfs.conf has:

perm    xpt0    0660
perm    pass0   0660
link    acd0    cdrom
link    acd0    acd0c
perm    acd0    0660

I'm also symlinked cdrom to acd0.  Peculiar though,
that I did not have an acd0c device in my /dev.  I
created one and symlinked it to acd0.

dmesg recognizes it:

acd0: CDROM <ATAPI 48X CDROM> at ata1-slave PIO4

anyone have any ideas on this?
