Hi All,

I'm having 2 small mounting issues (well...one's an issue, one's personal preference) in my system i have 1 CDROM drive...however when the system boots it says:
can not find /dev/cdroms/cdrom0
not all devices were mounted

i don't use my optical drives very much, but would someone be able to tell me where to find it so i can enable it?

my second question is, how can i have Gentoo auto-mount USB devices when i plug them in (such as usb external hard drives and flash drives) and auto-mount the other 2 ext3 partitions on my hard drive?

thanks

For the first problem can you tell post the output of
Code:
ls /dev/

Code:
dmesg | grep CD #or DVD


Then for the second question post your /etc/fstab
well you actually don't have to post it you only need to add auto in the part of <opts>, that is for the other partitions.

For the usb devices it depends, if you use kde then it's not that hard you only need the packages hald, ivman and dbus, if not then you can follow this guide

Now on your /etc/fstab change the line /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 to /dev/hdc that should solve the problem of the cd.
