Cdrom Problems

Soulful93 · 05-11-2005, 09:26 PM

I'm using Slackware 10.1 with the 2.4 kernel version. I can't mount my cdrom (cd's) at all anymore. However, I don't have any problems mounting DVD's with the same drive.

When I try and mount a cd it returns this error.

Code:

mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/cdrom,
missing codepage or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so
Please check that the disk is entered correctly.

This is the output of dmesg | tail.

Code:

This is my fstab.

Code:

/dev/cdrom       /mnt/cdrom       iso9660     noauto,user,ro   0   0

I've also appended this to my lilo.conf.

Code:

append="hdc=ide-scsi"

I'm using an outdated "animated" lilo version, also I manually changed the permissions of cdrecord and cdrdao for k3b I don't know if either one could have caused this but I figured I'd let you know.

Also after I execute shutdown -h now it say's power off (which is normal) and then it say's something to the effect of.

Code:

sbpcd-0 No drive found.

Scratch that, it's mounting data cd's? It still won't mount audio cd's though

Wait does Linux actually mount audio cd's? Because kscd isn't having any problems playing them.

linux doesn't actually mount audio cd's...

audio cd's have no valid filesystem, so they cannot be mounted. if you want to play the audio, then insert the cd and use an app like KsCD or the gnome cd player.

Ok if you add

Code:

append="hdx=ide-scsi"

on your lilo.conf then the device became /dev/sr0 so you just need to delete /dev/cdrom and recreate the link pointing to /dev/sr0.

In other letters:

Code:

cd /dev
rm -rf /dev/cdrom
ln -s /dev/sr0 /dev/cdrom

And that should do it.
