I am a linux newbie - real new with just enough knowledge to be dangerous to myself.
I have the Woody CD set and installed Debian multiple numbers of months ago. I was running a web server with no issues and then the power supply for my computer died. I replaced the power supply and brought the computer back up. After playing around I think I messed up something and decided it would be easier to reinstall and start over clean. However, now the computer will not find my CD-ROM at all. It was working when I installed Debian but I'm not 100% sure what was "driving" the CD for the installation (windows or linux). I have searched and can find nothing definitive. I did find a loose connector that went from the CD not being in the system at all (no wonder with no connection) to getting an error message of Unable to identify CD-ROM format from dmesg. When I try to mount the CD from within Gnome I get the following: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/cdrom, missing codepage or other error. I'd appreciate any comments that anyone wants to chime in with as I'm pretty much at my wits end at this point. Don -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
