Hi all,
have a strange problem re combo cd/dvd drive on Lenovo laptop
Drive works to install both Win Xp and Ubuntu (tried 7.10  and 8.04)
same results, works to install systems, but once installed is no longer 
accessible in either XP or Linux.


Have just updated bios
on trying to mount cd drive I get

squareyes at here-laptop:~$ mount /media/cdrom0/
mount: /dev/scd0 is not a block device

etc/fstab

 # /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point>   <type>  <options>       <dump>  <pass>

/dev/scd0       /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec 0       0


What am I doing wrong??

Many thanks
Take Care
