ok, i tried the mount command suggested by LivinFree (thanks for the advice)- did not make any difference. I tried rebooting (sigh), and that didn't help. I even tried burning another CD - still not working. I really am running out of options... I guess that I will try burning the CD on my windows box, but I doubt that will do anything - I don't think it's a problem with the burn - seems to be isolated to the linux box... I could always try to FTP! (might have to).

The deal is that it worked fine just 2 months ago!!

A thought:

The CD that I am having trouble with has quite a deep directory structure (3 dirs deep before the caps start) - not sure if that is the issue - don't think so tho - i'll try more testing...

Ok - maybe it does have something to do with the burn - I found the CD that I made a couple of months ago - it has a different dir structure, and the caps are THERE. Could it have to do with long directory names??
