    This is my fstab file. Community suggests making changes to fstab file. i am not sure if this helps.



    # /etc/fstab: static file system information.

    # Use 'blkid -o value -s UUID' to print the universally unique identifier
    # for a device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name
    # devices that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).

    Hmm... well this could either be a problem with the disc, or it could be a problem with the Optical Drive's driver. What is the brand and model of the CD drive?
