 |
|
I've got the following problem here:
Whenever I try to mount a cd or dvd I get the following error
| Code: |
mount /mnt/dvd or mount /mnt/cdrom
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdc,
or too many mounted file systems
|
This happens as regular user and as root.
As root, however, doing
| Code: |
mount /dev/hdc /mnt/dvd
|
works perfectly...
The fstab entries are as follows:
| Code: |
/dev/hdc /mnt/dvd auto noauto,ro,user,umask=022 0 0
/dev/hdd /mnt/cdrom auto noauto,ro,user,umask=022 0 0
|
Changing the fs type from auto to iso9660 doesn't help either.
So why is mount complaining about the fs type? Doing a mount /dev/hdc /mnt/dvd doesn't specify the fs type as well... |

only thing different to my fstab entries is that a)I specified iso9660. b)I don't have a specified umask, and c)the devices are different, so I guess you could try getting rid of umask
(you haven't tried to mount audio CDs have you?...everytime except when you specified the device and mount point  )

Here's what I got for the cd-burner/DVD.
/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,ro,user 0 0
I've had no problems mounting it as a user. |
