RE: [TCLUG:7442] CD problem

[^chewie <chewie@nerp.net>]

I looked at the man page for mount for the exact syntax of the
command.  It may not matter, but I believe you should specify the
device AFTER you specify your options.

	mount [options] {device} {drive}

So, you'd have...

	mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom

Notice...

	mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdc/ /mnt/cdrom

...will not work.  There's some syntax problem with including the
slash at the end of the device name.

If this doesn't work, try a different CD.  Make sure you're trying
this as root.  You can add user mount capabilities later in the fstab
(man fstab).

If that doesn't work, I'd have no idea what's going on.  You may want
to recompile the kernel to a newer version just to be on the safe
side.
