Similar to what you do with the hard disk. Connect the drive and boot
the computer. Your CD-RW should be detected as /dev/hdX ( where X =
a/b/c/d/ ....). The system will probably create another link for your
CD-RW in /media/, mine has /media/cdrom and /media/dvd

Physically install it. Then boot up. Check dmesg for device name. Add
suitable line to /etc/fstab.

Error appeats if to boot after installation and Linux does not loads
"hda: lost interrut".

What a hell is that?

Hardware problem likely related to how you physically installed the
drive. If it is IDE:
If on its own cable, have it jumpered to "master"

If on a cable with another drive, have:
the drive jumpered "master"
the CD-RW jumpered "slave"

Problems can arrise if a hard drive (e.g. hda) is on a
cable on its own but not jumpered either way. The
controller (hardware) can figure things out for one
drive but not two.

Doug.

That is correct, Doug. The jumper on pins that on back of cdrw was in
master position as default.
It is possible to use one cable with to plugins - one as master other as
slave.

The cdrw is visible and working. But it is still unclear how to do that
cd's files automatically should be visible in /mnt/cdrw directory.
There is fstab file:

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/sda1 / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-rw 0 1
/dev/sda5 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/hdb /mnt/cdrw udf,iso9660 rw,users,auto, unhide,unset 0
0
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto rw,users,auto 0 0
/dev/hdc1 /mnt/small ext3 defaults 2 1
~

Although one more question: is it correct that in only adf and iso1660
types was mentioned? If to put a not audio but data file what should
happen then?

Regards,
Andrius

Keep in mind that I don't use a desktop manager so for me nothing gets
mounted automatically. ISO9660 is a data CD. You cannot mount an audio
CD. It will tell you that the disk has the wrong format.

Doug.
