 Posted: Thu Nov 24, 2005 4:41 pm Post subject: cdrom not installed |
 |
|
| I have been using gentoo for a while now amd64 install and have never tried using my cdrom before other than for the installation and I can not find my cdrom anymore. I have it in my group for my user but when I look under storage media in kde I believe it used to show the cdrom now it doesnt. i need some help installing or trying to find it. thanks |

Try to execute
| Code: |
mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
|
as root in your console. If this works umount the drive and try
as user in the console. If this fails you have to adjust your
/etc/fstab file!
Have fun!

you must not have executable permissions on /etc/fstab. Just run
# mount /mnt/cdrom |

Did
| Code: |
mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
|
as root worked for you? If so, change the line
| Code: |
/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom auto noauto,user 0 0
|
of your /etc/fstab file to
| Code: |
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,user 0 0
|
Afterwards save and try
as a normal user.
Does this work?
