Two problems, apt-get has stopped mounting my periph PCMCIA cdrom (EXP). When I try apt-cdrom add, it prompts me to put in cdrom, but then it complains that it is not a valid block device. Don't understand why this has started happeing, as it used to work fine.
So, as a workaround I mounted the CDROM, looked through source files, and copied the x11 directory to /sources/x11 on my hard drive. Then tried to compile from there. First did gunzip *.* then tar *.* ; but I don't think I have source packages; still have .diff .dsc and .tar files. How to make progress from here??
