If you saw an "error" then your compile woul;d have stopped period, warnings on the otherhand do NOT stop a compile, i expect you think a warning is the same as an error however this is not the case when compiling a program or a kernel. > I tried to mount my CD drive in the normal way: > > mount /mnt/cdrom > > But I'm getting a ``mount: /dev/cdrom is not a valid block > device''. Does anyone have any idea why this is appearing? You have forgotten to include cdrom support as per the CDROM-HOWTO. Or simply no iso9660 or cdrom support in your kernel or compiled as modules. I cannot say more as you did not say if the device is a SCSI device IDE or whatever. > > Thanks, > Yawar Amin > - > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-newbie" in > the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html > Please read the FAQ at http://www.linux-learn.org/faqs -- Regards Richard [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.zeelandnet.nl/pa3gcu/ - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-newbie" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.linux-learn.org/faqs
