mount -r -t cd9660 /dev/cd0a /mnt/cdrom

Ok, I got something new when I tried the above line. I already have /mnt/ados
mounted as a read only for the amiga partition.

After hitting return, my CD-ROM spins up and the Scsi access light stays on and
the system hangs. I tried several CD's and they all to the same thing.

I have an Amiga 3000T and I am using the internal SCSI port. The Kernal finds my
drive ok, and reads tha manufacturer's infor correctly, is there something I am
doing wrong? Or perhaps a way I can try to debug what might be glitching?

When it is hung, a CRTL-C will get me a shell prompt but with in 2 seconds the
keyboard rejects further input.


Thank You for help so far.
Nick.
