hi all
im running FC4 Test 3 - 2.6.11-1.1366_FC4 and just inserted a blank CD-R into my LG 52x-32x-52x drive... with the intention to use the bunring software (at least in FC3) was native in the nautilus file browser

when i inserted the disk however, i noticed first that none of the disks i placed in (CD-R/RW/otherwise) were auto mouting, so i tried a my FC4T3 cd 1 in my other drive (an LG DVD-ROM) it still didnt auto mount, so i open nautilus ('computer:///') and double-clicked on the icon for the DVD-ROM -> the CD mounted and opend fine... i was happy :) at least the drive wasnt dead cause i then did the same on the burner...

When however i inserted a blank CD-R and doubleclicked on the CD-RW Drive icon in 'computer:///' and got an error saying:
Mount Error
Unable to mount the selected volume
v Show more detales
mount: i could not determine the filesystem type, and none was specified


could someone please help me with this - as i have no idea wat to do...

ok, sorry guys, i managed to fix it (dont know how...) i took the blank disk out, tried another disk i had lying around (a RW) which (with a double click) mounted fine, i then decided to try the same blank CD-R agian and it auto mounted the disk and burnt fine...
so i have no idea what the problem was...

Perhaps this is a more general problem with disk mounting? I had the same problem mounting a drive from a remote computer and a USB drive. After a bit of head scratching, remaking the connection and reinserting the USB device both appeared.

Then again, at least for the USB drive it may have been my fault for not unmounting the drive properly the first time.
