Thanks Fred,
/cdrom is the mount point, so no I don't think it should be a symlink.
The command is:
$ mount /dev/cd0a /cdrom
mount_cd9660: /dev/cd0a on /cdrom: Operation not permitted
Hi Laurence,
You are right it should just be a node so not a symlink.
The issue is with root owning /cdrom - but if you add /cdrom entry to fbtab:
port:fred ~> tail -2 /etc/fbtab
#/dev/ttyC0 0600 /dev/fd0
/dev/ttyC0 0600 /cdrom
Then the user who logs in can then mount /cdrom
port:fred ~> mount -tcd9660 /dev/cd0a /cdrom
port:fred ~> mount
/dev/sd0a on / type ffs (local)
/dev/sd0k on /home type ffs (local, nodev, nosuid)
/dev/sd0d on /tmp type ffs (local, nodev, nosuid)
/dev/sd0f on /usr type ffs (local, nodev)
/dev/sd0g on /usr/X11R6 type ffs (local, nodev)
/dev/sd0h on /usr/local type ffs (local, nodev)
/dev/sd0j on /usr/obj type ffs (local, nodev, nosuid)
/dev/sd0i on /usr/src type ffs (local, nodev, nosuid)
/dev/sd0e on /var type ffs (local, nodev, nosuid)
/dev/sd2i on /mnt/usbpen type msdos (local)
/dev/cd0a on /cdrom type cd9660 (local, nodev, nosuid, read-only)
I had to read mount(8) and fbtab(5) to work it out...
