Just installed red hat 7.2. Things are ok, except for this. It's not able to read any of my video CDs. I'm able to mount the vcd, but I can't read a file (I can read directories).

Here's the cdrom portion of my fstab: /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0

Here's what I'm doing.

# eject -t # mount /mnt/cdrom # ls /mnt/cdrom/mpegav avseq01.dat # cp /mnt/cdrom/mpegav/avseq01.dat . cp: reading `/mnt/cdrom/mpegav/avseq01.dat': Input/output error # echo $? 1 # umount /mnt/cdrom # eject # rm -rf /

I tried with different video CDs (I have many =) but none of them seem to work. And the behaviour is the same - can read directories but can't read files. Also, other CDs (like the rh7.2 cd itself) work just fine. It's just with video CDs this problem. And the same video CDs were working ok with windows until last week when I removed windows.

I have *enough* space on my disk. I can't even do something like this: # cat /mnt/cdrom/mpegav/avseq01.dat > /dev/null cat: /mnt/cdrom/mpegav/avseq01.dat: Input/output error

Anyone faced this problemo? What do you do?
