When running the command mount on shell I get the follwowing output: mount /dev/sr0 /media/cdrom/ mount: block device /dev/sr0 is write-protected, mounting read-only mount: no medium found on /dev/sr0 Rebooting the system helps as workaround, but is very anoying for a normal user, only to have a dvd mounted.

Insert a new media into the cdrom drive 2. wait a few seconds 3. try to mount manually Reproducible: Steps to Reproduce:
Hello, Certain operations donât require the disk to be mounted like reading a cdrom/dvdrom. If this operation does not work, it might be a problem with your driver, or maybe a kernel bug. Could you insert a disk and attach the output of the dmesg command ?

how does it works in current cauldron ?
In my case, I see cdrom drive not mounted only when I start system with a media inserted before start machine (it's a VM). I need eject media via Virtualbox menu and only after, if I insert it, it is detected and automounted.

A GUI reading a cdrom may not need to mount it, but the contents aren't visible in a terminal until it is mounted. Bug 145 has the same cause: if the cdrom is not mounted automatically, it is not available to urpmi etc. I found it necessary to mount the cdrom manually after inserting it, to let the installer see it.
