I recently built a 2.6.3 custom kernel for my debian/unstable machine. I am using the unstable kernel-source package. When booting my computer now I get a strange error: cdrom: open failed. cdrom: open failed. cdrom: open failed. cdrom: open failed. cdrom: open failed. cdrom: open failed. cdrom: open failed. cdrom: open failed. cdrom: open failed. cdrom: open failed. cdrom: open failed. cdrom: open failed. Now I did some googling for the error and I found a myriad of solutions related to this. Among them, and things I've tried are: Recompile the kernel to not include "Kernel automounter support" Use the noauto option in fstab: # <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass> /dev/cdrw /cdrw auto ro, user, noauto 0 0 /dev/dvdrw /dvdrw auto ro, user, noauto 0 0 There was also a suggestion that this could be an indication that the drive is bad? Could someone explain (or confirm) this? Please let me know if you need more information. Thank you. Michael -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
