Well the error you quoted says that iso9660 is not supported by the kernel. Did you create a custom kernel? CD-ROM support must, I think, be explicitly excluded from a default configuration.
Of course, I was about to say get a generic kernel from the distro CD ... If you have the package manager installed, I believe it will connect via Internet to the Mandrake site and show available packages, one of which I would imagine would be CD-ROM support. Someone with more experience than me should be able to add more details here. julian. ===================================== At 08:01 PM 1/1/02 -0800, you wrote: >ok i install Linux by CD i know that im just asking that I cannot mount the >cdrom when im inside the Linux Systems already (KDE and Gnome) >I dont want to reinstall again so what will I do so i will not re-Install >again >Thanks > >Respectfully >AOL >www.aolsystems.com > >Julian Opificius wrote: > > > How did you install Linux in the first place if not by CD ROM? > > > > julian. > > ================================= > > At 02:10 PM 1/1/02 -0800, you wrote: > > >Pls help! > > > > > >I mounted my cdrom using mount /mnt/cdrom then > > >i went to the directory using cd /mnt/cdrom when i command ls > > >no directories or files found > > >when i command mount /dev/cdrom an error occured saying > > >"fs: iso9660 is not supported by your kernel > > >so how will i installed packages so my cdrom may be supported and what > > >packages should i install.How can I also install it my cdrom does not > > >mount-I cannot use my cdrom. > > > > > >Any help will be gladly appreciated. > > >Thanks and God Bless! > > > > > >Happy New Year!!!2002 from AOL Systems! > > >Mabuhay ang Pilipinas! > > > > > >Respectfully > > >AOL > > > > > > > > > > > > > > >Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? > > >Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com > > > > ============================== > > Julian A.
