I Can't Mount CDs

Post by Calum » Sat Apr 19, 2003 4:51 am

help. i can't mount CDs.
i had a huge formatting disaster and have reinstalled slack and red hat. i can mount cds in red hat but not in slack. the zip drive mounts fine but not the cd drive.

Code: Select all

bash-2.05b$ mount /mnt/cdrom/
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/cdrom,
       or too many mounted file systems
       (could this be the IDE device where you in fact use
       ide-scsi so that sr0 or sda or so is needed?)
bash-2.05b$ cat /etc/fstab
/dev/hda4        swap             swap        defaults         0   0
/dev/hda6        /                ext3        defaults         1   1
/dev/hda5        /mnt/redhat      ext3        defaults         1   2
/dev/hda8        /home            ext3        defaults         1   2
#/dev/hda7        /mnt/debian      reiserfs    defaults         1   2
/dev/hda1        /C               vfat        defaults,umask=0  1   0
/dev/cdrom       /mnt/cdrom       iso9660     defaults,noauto,users,ro  0   0
/dev/fd0         /mnt/floppy      auto        noauto,users,rw     0   0
devpts           /dev/pts         devpts      gid=5,mode=620   0   0
proc             /proc            proc        defaults         0   0
/dev/sda4       /mnt/zip        auto    defaults,users,rw       0 0
and here's what my grub.conf looks like, in case it's relevant:

Code: Select all

# grub.conf generated by anaconda
#
# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file
# NOTICE:  You do not have a /boot partition.  This means that
#          all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /, eg.
#          root (hd0,4)
#          kernel /boot/vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/hda5
#          initrd /boot/initrd-version.img
#boot=/dev/hda
default=1
timeout=40
splashimage=(hd0,4)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz
title Red Hat Linux 8 (2.4.18-14)
        root (hd0,4)
        kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18-14 ro root=/dev/hda5 hdc=ide-scsi
        initrd /boot/initrd-2.4.18-14.img
title Slackware Linux 8
        root (hd0,5)
        kernel /boot/vmlinuz ro root=/dev/hda6 hdc=ide-scsi
title MS-Winsux
        rootnoverify (hd0,0)
        chainloader +1
#title Knoppix 3
#       rootnoverify (hd0,6)
#       chainloader +1
any ideas?
i am stumped!
thanks in advance et cetera.

I assume your CD drive is a burner because you are loading the ide-scsi driver when booting Slack. Is your /dev/cdrom a symbolic link that points to another device? If so what is it pointing to? Do an "ls -l /dev/cdrom" to see.

okay, yes it's a burner, and its real address is /dev/scd0 while my other cd drive (a malfunctioning dvd drive i hardly ever use) seems to work fine too. it is /dev/hdd and i didn't think of it to start with because slackware never bothered to configure it and i never needed it till now.

i imagine it is something to do with my kernel, as i am using a kernel called vmlinuz-ide-2.4.20 so i am taking the opportunity to recompile my kernel. this is no mean feat on a celery 700. i tried dropping in the bare.i kernel from the CD like doogee recommended, but it gave the same situation unfortunately. now i am just following beltorak's kernel instructions because they worked fine in red hat.

hopefully this will fix the problem, i seem to be having a problem getting the zip drive to mount as hfs again too, but that's not a kernel problem since i can do it if i specify the filesystem type, also /etc/filesystems does specify hfs as a type to check for. will try again after recompile.

one other thing, though unrelated, i can make an ext2 zip disk, using mke2fs but how could i make a vfat zip disk in linux? any clues?
thanks et c...

Have you tried "mkfs -t vfat /dev/zipdevice" or "mkfs.vfat /dev/zipdevice"?

i haven't although it seems kind of obvious now you mention it! thanks for being my intuition once again void main!

incidentally my kernel recompile went down the crapper for some reason unbeknownst to me so i am still in the same boatr with the scsi cd drive...

What's the output of "dmesg" look like? How is it different that the output of "dmesg" in Red Hat?

A couple of things come to mind. First it appears that it is setting up your CD on /dev/sr0 rather than /dev/scd0. Try sticking a known good CD in your drive and type "mount /dev/sr0 /mnt/cdrom". If that gives an error then maybe you don't have SCSI CD-ROM support compiled into the kernel:

Code: Select all

root@boxotrix:~# mount /dev/sr0 /mnt/cdrom
mount: block device /dev/sr0 is write-protected, mounting read-only
root@boxotrix:~# ls -al /dev/scd0
brw-r-----    1 root     disk      11,   0 Jul 18  1994 /dev/scd0
so i did that, and it has mounted the CD drive perfectly! this is odd, as i installed slackware before and didn't have this issue. i suppose i just need to use sr0 as the device from now on.
thanks very much for noticing that.

/dev/cdrom should just be a symbolic link to /dev/scd0. You can change it to point to /dev/sr0 instead and that would be the only change you have to make:

# ln -sf /dev/sr0 /dev/cdrom
