		+	== well ==
		+
		+	fair point; I thought maybe the /mnt/cdrom mountpoint was nonexistant and that he'd have better luck with /cdrom
		+	might want to do an ls -la on the /dev/md1 to make sure it's a proper dev
		+	in general i don't muck about with mounting a lot of media on my bsd servers though...

		+	Do you actually have a directory /mnt/cdrom? One has to exist before you can mount something else on it. If you do have a /mnt/cdrom and the mount command that you just listed didn't work, then your ISO file is not valid. --[[User:Jimbo\|Jimbo]] 16:29, 9 Nov 2005 (EST)
