I have a problem mounting nowadays, not too sure what happened. It has been working for me all along. here's my entry within /etc/fstab
#

If i put a CD in my CD and type 'mount /mnt/cd' it returns: no medium found.
If i put a CD in my DVD-ROM, and type 'mount /mnt/dvd', it returns:
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/cdroms/cdrom1,
or too many mounted file systems
Anyone have an idea what's going on? I've managed to mount any CD all this time with similar entry, and now I'm stuck with no clue whatsoever. Please help[

there is another thread with the same problem i guess:

can you mount DVDs & CDs as root?

I've seen this post before, but it doesn't solve my problem. I'm not using udev or anything by the way.

This might not be all that useful a suggestion but:
1. did you try mouting them as root?
2. try changing your fstype to "auto" under you DVD setting. not sure if listing FS as udf is going to work when you are tyring to read iso9660.
your /mnt/cd entry error sounds like it is searching the wrong drive. are you sure you have the cdrom numbers correct?

Did you compile your own kernel? If so check you have the file systems built.

Mount a CD if you have a data CD inserted.
If using audioCD disc, you cannot mount the CD. It is recognized without mounting.

The CD you're trying to read is knackered, unless you're trying to read a few different CDs, in which case I would revert a kernel version at least.

tell us at least if you are able to mount it as root. that' somwhere to start.

Thanks all for the input, let me answer few of you to help me troubleshooting
1. I did try to mount as 'root'
2. I've changed the 'udf' to 'auto', even the iso9960 to 'auto' as well. To no avail, it didn't work
3. Yes, I tried to mount a data CD
4. I haven't mount any CDs since I upgraded to kernel 2.6.8.
The last time I was on kernel 2.6.6, i was still able to mount any CDs. I wouldn't know how to compile my own kernel, everything comes straight from the build package. If there's any suggestion for me to start compiling my own kernel, I would appreciate it.
I don't think it's a kernel issue, because I was still able to mount other my windows partition, correct me if i'm wrong.

you did add yourself to the optical group? even if you are using devfs you have to do this unless you have instructions to the contrary in your devfd.conf

An observation: perhaps you have no /mnt/cd and /mnt/dvd directory in /mnt

You could try mounting it in the DVD drive, but with the iso9660 filesystem (instead of udf or "auto"). Also try mounting other CDs, or testing your optical drives in windows (I guess you have windows since you have a windows partition).

what are the permissions of /mnt/cd & /mnt/dvd ?

ok, to my shock I found that I have similar problems. here's the deal:
I have 2 fstab entries for cdrom (/dev/hda)
1:
/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom iso9660 blah 0 0
where /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 is symlinked to /dev/hda
2: (for gvm)
/dev/hda /media/cdrom auto blah 0 0
here is the strange part:
when I type (as user or root)
mount /mnt/cdrom , it mounts it fine and everything works
when I try it with GVM or likeso:
mount /dev/cdroms/cdrom0
or
mount /dev/hda
I get
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda,
or too many mounted file systems
wtf? anyone know what is going on? I checked permissions and everything seems to be ok.

You have exactly the same problem with GNOME as I have with KDE. It means that when you are in console you can mount like mount /mnt/dvd for exmple and it works but while you use graphical desktop it doesn't well for now you can look at my last post and temporarily solve it just that you would be able to use CD,DVD etc.. I'll try and search other forums if I can find something that would help to solve that.

my permission is all for root, and i do have those cd and dvd dir under the /mnt directory. As I said before, this thing worked well until last week when I noticed it won't mount anymore.

I am going to start with one that seems highly suspect to me and that is your "No medium found" when you try to mount your /mnt/cdrom. Assuming that the mount command is ok, this indicates that it's searching the wrong drive to me (and I said as much when I posted the first time). so if you have not already checked it could you check and make sure
ls -l /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 is pointing to the correct /dev/hdx (ie. you cdrom?) . your DVD sounds like it's pointing correctly. did you also try mounting it manually like so:
#mount -t udf /dev/cdroms/cdrom1 /mnt/dvd
(This doesn't go through /etc/fstab BTW, so it's worth a try)
I don't know how the kernel is configured so I am going to guess: you did install the correct version of the kernel right? kernel26 instead of kernel26scsi?
