Linux reconizes my dvd as a cdrom drive

[Krycheck]

I went and change fstab and mtab to read as /mnt/dvd but it still wont work. Still mounts as cdrom2 (I have a cd burner as well )

I installed Xine and I read the FAQ. I did
do this:

cd /dev
ln -s hdc dvd

but still no luck :(

Suggestions?

Anything in /mnt is just a mountpoint. You can call it anything you like.

mkdir /mnt/damn_dvd

Change the mountpoint in fstab to reflect the change, insert a cd and mount as /mnt/damn_dvd

Check your system logs /var/log/messages to see if it is actually being detected as a DVD drive.

Looks like it is being detected as a dvd.
I have made the changes to fstab but still nothing :(

Changing the fstab will mean it works when you next reboot. To do it manually so you don't have to reboot type:

mount /dev/cdrom2 /mnt/dvd
or..
mount /dev/dvd /mnt/dvd

If it's not being detected as a DVD drive then the first line will work and if it is then the 2nd line should work. I think.
