PostUpgrade CD hang

Hi All,

I've very recently finished an upgrade to V5.0a PK 1 on our ES40, and now have
a curious problem with my CD drive. The command:

 /sbin/mount -r -t cdfs /dev/disk/cdrom0c /mnt

hangs indefinitely until it's interrupted with CTRL/C.
The CD light flashes once.

However, a noddy C-program to do the mount, succeeds.

The problem didnt appear immediately after the upgrade, but has sneaked in
since. Any ideas? Or is it (yet another) reboot?


Cheers,
Terry.
