List
Well, I have now gotten 2 of my three cdroms working.
1. The IDE cdrom drive (standard cdrom ) at /dev/cdrom -> /dev/sr1
2. The scsi cdwriter Yamaha at scsi ID 5, at /dev/sr0
3. After boot up, the desktop icons have a url of /auto/XXX for the
drives. I have changed these url to /mnt/XXX.
4. The /boot/grub/menu.lst, I removed the hdc=ide-scsi, but is still in
the /etc/default area.
5. added the following to /etc/fstab:
/dev/cdwriter /mnt/sr0 iso9660 ro,user,noauto,exec 0 0
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom iso9660 ro,user,noauto,exec 0 0
[root@RSivernell rick]# ps -ax | grep amd
503 ? S 0:11 amd -F /etc/am.d/conf
18343 pts/6 S 0:00 grep amd
[root@RSivernell rick]# mount
....
....
....
/dev/sr0 on /mnt/sr0 type iso9660 (ro)
/dev/cdrom on /mnt/cdrom type iso9660 (ro)
To mount the cdrom drives had to be mounted by hand.
thus the use of the desktop icons will work to display the contents
of the cdrom drives.
At this point, would it be prudient to not load the drives from amd, if
so how would I do this. Once that is done, I could have a small script to
perform the mount in /etc/profile. Is this valid & proper method of
mounting?
I have really liked all the comments and help from all of you, THANKS
cheers
