I've recently trashed a RH6.2 machine in favor of Debian Woody.
This is an all SCSI machine, with a Plextor CD-RW. When I mount any CD,
I get the following:
# mount /cdrom
mount: /dev/cdrom is not a block device
/cdrom, through /etc/fstab, points to /dev/cdrom:
# cat /etc/fstab | grep cdrom
/dev/cdrom /cdrom iso9660 defaults,rw,user,noauto 0 0
/dev/cdrom is a symlink to /dev/sr0:
# ls -al /dev/cdrom
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 Nov 27 02:41 /dev/cdrom -> sr0
sr0 is recognized at boot-up:
# dmesg | grep sr0
Attached scsi CD-ROM sr0 at scsi0, channel 0, id 4, lun 0
sr0: scsi3-mmc drive: 32x/32x writer cd/rw xa/form2 cdda tray
Also, ISO9660 is compiled into the kernel.
Any idea as to why I can't mount a CDROM?
Try linking /dev/cdrom /dev/scd0
Here you go:
rm -f /dev/cdrom ; ln -s /dev/scd0 /dev/cdrom
