For whatever reason, when I try to mount a data DVD I get the following message:
Unable to mount [disk name]
Error mounting: mount exited with exit code 1: helper failed with:
mount: mount point /media/cdrom does not exist
Yet, if I put a DVD video in I can play on any of my video apps, yet I also can't mount those in a file browser. I have no idea what has caused this. I haven't backed up data to disks in a long time, I only did so today because I'm running low on space in one of my drives.
I was told elsewhere that I needed to alter a file: /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-cd.rules
But I have no idea how to do this, and what I found there does not look like what was shown. This is what my file looks like:
Code:
# This file maintains persistent names for CD/DVD reader and writer devices.
# See udev(7) for syntax.
#
# Entries are automatically added by the 75-cd-aliases-generator.rules
# file; however you are also free to add your own entries provided you
# add the ENV{GENERATED}=1 flag to your own rules as well.
# TSSTcorp_CDDVDW_SH-S223C (pci-0000:00:1f.2-scsi-1:0:1:0)

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
