Hello, Debian testing 4.6.0-1-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.6.4-1 (2016-07-18) x86_64 GNU/Linux
Suddenly have a CDROM problem: $ mount /media/cdrom mount: /dev/sr0 is write-protected, mounting read-only mount: special device /dev/sr0 does not exist Did: # ls -l /dev/sr0 ls: cannot access '/dev/sr0': No such file or directory # cd /dev /dev# mknod sr0 b 11 0 /dev# chgrp cdrom sr0 /dev# chmod 660 sr0 Before reboot get: ~$ mount /media/cdrom mount: /dev/sr0 is write-protected, mounting read-only mount: /dev/sr0 is not a valid block device After rebooting makes Midnight Commander [mc] unresponsive? Obviously have done something wrong. Any help to get this CDROM working again, appreciated.
