Brilliant thanks for your help!

OK have done a bit of investigation and have found the following:

when DVD drive is unmounted, the directory is:

drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 1024 2005-06-07 19:30 cdrom0

but when I mount the DVD, I get:

dr-xr-xr-x  3 4294967295 4294967295 88 2003-09-08 21:08 cdrom0

The full path is /media/cdrom0

How do I fix this issue?

Thanks very much for your help again

Regards - Piers
