new sig

My friend got me into Linux this weekend. I have it installed on my crappy extra computer. The sig is an extreme exaggeration of when I first tried it on my own. (took me 15min to mount cdrom :o )I'm still getting used to it, but I like it so far.

Make life a little easier on yourself. Seriously.

If you are serious about using Linux, just edit your /etc/fstab file to auto-mount the cdrom when anything is inserted into it.

If you are using RedHat, this should already occur. Some older versions of not-so-popular *nix's do not automount and you need to edit the file.

For the newbie in you...

or you could write yourself a little mount/unmount script.
