Dear list ! I am trying to use two IDE-CDrom drives, I recently connected to my Bering 1.0-Box loading of moduls succeeded, both drives are found while loading the moduls. Manufacturer name and other stuff is recognized correctly.
How do I access the devices ?
mount /dev/hd[ab] /mnt results: "no driver present" "no device found"
mount /dev/hd[cd] /mnt misses: "driver not found" but also states:"no device found"
In both cdroms are CD's inserted... (I actually do a mount of /dev/hda OR /dev/hdb, instead of /dev/hd[ab] (<-- regular expression)
reading the docs/faqs/mailarchives last night did not give a hint.... Some DOCs on LEAF mention a device /dev/cdrom. This link does not exist. I will eventually will create it, when I found the physical to which it can refer ;-)
The devicefiles /dev/hd[abcd] does exist.
I am _not_ trying to _boot_ from CD, I just need a second media to store more moduls, which doesn't fit onto one floppydisk. I also could install a second floppydrive....if I had one ;-)
Thanks for any hints !
Do you have the iso9660 filesystem module loaded? What about the IDE CD modules (note you need more than the low-level IDE drivers, there are also modules for talking to a CD-ROM drive using the IDE bus)? Assuming you have the modules loaded to support CD access, use:
mount -t iso9660 -r /dev/hd[abcd] /mnt
You can also probably use the shortcut of /dev/cdrom, if the Bering init scripts still look for and create a /dev/cdrom symlink to the first cdrom device found (this feature was added to Dachstein, which Bering is based on, so it should probably work).
