Hi,
1. While the other data cd's are mounted normally, I cannot mount music cd's
on BLFS. The cd's have been checked against Windows XP on the same computer.
These are working normally there. Music is otherwise, working well on BLFS
in xmms. The error while mounting music cd's on BLFS is as given below:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# mount /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom
mount: block device /dev/hdc is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: /dev/hdc: can't read superblock
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~#
Incidently, the same error is repeated in SuSe-10, on the same computer.
Is this a linux specific problem? Any solution?
2. In BLFS, I am using autofs-4.1.4. Although at boot time, the script says:
"OK", it does'nt seem to be working. As non-root user, when I click the
cd-icon on my desktop, I get the error that "Only root can mount etc".
Checking the 'man' is not a great help. Contents of my '/etc/auto.misc' are
as follows:
#
# $Id: auto.misc,v 1.2 2003/09/29 08:22:35 raven Exp $
#
# This is an automounter map and it has the following format
# key [ -mount-options-separated-by-comma ] location
# Details may be found in the autofs(5) manpage
cd -fstype=iso9660,ro,nosuid,nodev :/dev/hdc
floppy -fstype=auto,rw :/dev/fd0
# the following entries are samples to pique your imagination
#linux -ro,soft,intr ftp.example.org:/pub/linux
#boot -fstype=ext2 :/dev/hda1
#floppy -fstype=auto :/dev/fd0
#floppy -fstype=ext2 :/dev/fd0
#e2floppy -fstype=ext2 :/dev/fd0
#jaz -fstype=ext2 :/dev/sdc1
#removable -fstype=ext2 :/dev/hdd
In '/media' there are no mount points. And even as 'root' I cannot make
mount points in '/media'. It say permission denied.
Similar errors are reflected for floppy as well. Seems something wrong with
permissions in 'auto.misc' above.
Any guidance please?
Thanks
Randhir Phagura
