 Posted: Sat May 20, 2006 6:18 pm Post subject: CDrom won't auto-mount [SOLVED] |
 |
|
I'm running gnome.
I have hald, dbus running
User is in appropriate groups:
| Code: |
$ groups
wheel floppy audio cdrom video usb users cron plugdev games
|
CDs won't mount when I insert them.
Manually mounting them produced an error:
| Code: |
mount: block device /dev/hdc is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: /dev/hdc already mounted or /media/cdrecorder/ busy
|
On someone's advise I emerged ivman and pmount.
No automount, clicking CD-RW drive under Nautilus gave an error:
| Code: |
Warning: device /dev/hdc is already handled by /etc/fstab, supplied label is ignored
mount: block device /dev/hdc is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: /dev/hdc already mounted or /media/cdrecorder busy
Error: could not execute pmount
|
So I commented reference to cdrom from fstab
No automount. Clicking CD-RW drive again produced different error:
| Code: |
mount: unknown filesystem type 'jfs'
Error: could not delete mount point: No such file or directory
Error: could not execute pmount
|
I tried manual pmount with user.
| Code: |
$ pmount /dev/hdc
mount: unknown filesystem type 'jfs'
|
| Code: |
$ pmount -t iso9660 /dev/hdc
mount: block device /dev/hdc is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: /dev/hdc already mounted or /media/hdc busy
|
Does this mean anything to anyone? I'm stumped.

This should make automount for you
| Code: | | /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom iso9660 users,noauto 0 0 |

Same problem(s).
Additionally, when attempting to manually mount I get
| Code: |
# mount /media/cdrecorder/
mount: special device /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 does not exist
|

I think that you should take a look in your /dev directory. If /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 does not exists you musn't use it in fstab.
Using command ls -l /dev/cdr* you should have something like that
| Code: |
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 May 20 13:23 /dev/cdrom -> xxx
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 May 20 13:23 /dev/cdrw -> xxx
|
This should be your device. |

Yeah, that's the easy part. It's at /dev/hdc.
| Code: |
# ls -al /dev/cdr*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 May 16 23:11 /dev/cdrom -> hdc
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 May 16 23:11 /dev/cdrw -> hdc
|
Mounting it still doesn't work. |

This is bizarre.
I stopped hald & ivman, and killed gnome-volume-manager.
Thus, nothing should be automounted, right?
Then, when I put a CD in and manually mount it, I get the same 'already mounted' error:
| Code: |
# mount /dev/hdc
mount: block device /dev/hdc is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: /dev/hdc already mounted or /mnt/cdrom busy
|
What could possibly be attempting to mount this? Some kernel-level thing?
Edit:
After attempting, this is output of mount:
| Code: |
# mount
/dev/hda3 on / type ext3 (rw,noatime,user_xattr)
proc on /proc type proc (rw)
sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw)
udev on /dev type tmpfs (rw,nosuid)
devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw)
/dev/hda1 on /boot type ext2 (rw,noatime)
/dev/hda5 on /home type ext3 (rw,noatime,user_xattr)
/dev/hdb1 on /mnt/bigboy type ext3 (rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,user_xattr)
none on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
usbfs on /proc/bus/usb type usbfs (rw,devmode=0664,devgid=85)

I'm not completely sure why, but it works now.
I suspect it was because I didn't have hotplug in default run-level
| Code: |
# rc-update add hotplug default
|
How it works.
The relevant line from fstab is
| Code: |
/dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom iso9660 user,exec,noauto,managed 0 0
|
Thanks for the help! |
