dd acts on raw devices if you want a dd of cdrom ,insert the media and issue: dd if=/dev/cdrom of=CDROM.iso

If /dev/cdrom is not a symbolic link to a /dev/hdx device, just use /dev/hdx instead. (x being whichever IDE-device your CDROM is). /Per Jessen, Zürich

Start Yast/Hardware/CD-ROM drives There will be a list with the cd-rom drives, as well as their /dev/hdx node. Just see which one you need. -- -- Svetoslav Milenov (Sunny)

Assuming these changes are correct to rid me of automount.
