Using Your CD-ROM Drive
2–13
Mounting a CD-ROM Disc
To access your CD-ROM drive, you must mount a CD-ROM disc every time you insert it
into the drive. This applies to file system information only. If you wish to load a music
CD, for example, you would not need to mount the disc. Mounting a disc with file system
information on it gives the disc a pathname that allows your workstation to communicate
electronically with it. You must unmount the CD–ROM disc before removing it from the
drive.
CAUTION: To use a CD–ROM disc as a mounted file system, you must mount
the CD–ROM disc every time you load it in the drive. You must
also unmount the CD–ROM disc every time you unload it from the
drive. Failure to mount or unmount the CD–ROM disc can cause a
system error condition that can require rebooting the system.

contact your system administrator.
