Is the system available for mounting USB devices? If not, he'll
need to either load the modules or compile into the kernel.<br>
<br>
A more preferable method is to change the options within the /etc/fstab
file from "owner" to "user" so that a non-admin user can use it.
Something similar to:<br>
<br>
/dev/scd0
/usbcdrw
iso9660
noauto,user,exec 0 0<br>
<br>
Syntax could be wrong, as I have never attempted to mount a USB CD-Rom device.<br>
<br>
BTW, if the CD-Rom has blank media in it you won't be able to mount
it. It's treated just as if he's trying to mount a CD-Rom drive
without media.<br>
