On Wednesday 30 July 2003 19:07, Rorie Scott poked randomly at a keyboard 
and came up with:

> I have a Mitsumi IDE CDRW as my only CD drive. I can mount a data CD (as
> root) and view the contents. I can't use the drive as a CD player (won't
> mount) or as a re/writer.
>
> A few of complaints at bash include:
> bash: cd: /mnt/cdrom/: Input/output error
> eject: unable to eject, last error: Invalid argument
> and my favourite...
> umount: it seems /mnt/cdrom is mounted multiple times
>
> Any pointers would be much appreciated

Have you checked the permissions?  As you say, you can see it as root...
