<DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS">Hi I an quite new to Linux and am growing to
love it :) I have a bit of a prob ,I have just installed Linux Mandrake 8 I
had a problem during the install when the install prog got to "configuring X
the pc locked up upon reboot I logged in at the prompt ok when I tried
"Xconfigurator " it locked again ,so I updated my Linux Mandrake 7.2 version
again it locked up when it came to configure X.On a reboot it started a very
nice Kde desktop ok .I started to have a play and found my cdrom drives locked
.I Su'ed to root and found the /mnt/cdrom and /mnt/cdrom2 directories still
locked and I could not access the How do I change these permissions I
have tried as root but can't .Does any one have any thoughts please if not I
will have to go back to my trusty 7.2 version :(</FONT></DIV>
