Aparently this is not a new problem, but once in a while our internal 
CD-player (in a 4/470 file server) loses its device driver. 
so when a mount or any other command is issued to /dev/sr0 
it reponds with "no such device or address". 

I have heard that power cycling the cd-player seems to fix it, 
but since ours is built in the only fix seems to be rebooting the 
machine. Since this is a file server this does not go over well with 
most people. 

So if anybody has any solutions as to how to either prevent the cd-player
from disappering, or how to get it back when it does I would be eager to 
hear from you.
