Hi folks...I have the following trouble: I have a cd-copier & a cd-reader, Due to I want to perform direct cd copying I made some changes in fstab and lilo.conf.
For example: when in fstab appeared /dev/cdrom1 I put instead dev=/dev/scd1 (This was to made SCSI simulation on the cd-reader) I get both the cd-r & the cd-wr recognized by the front-ends of burning although I cannot make any "on-the-fly" copies [This is another problem!!!]... The problem starts to arose when I tried to install some packages from the download cd's... When Software Manager asks for the cd1, I put it on the reader, and it ejects me the cd like it was a wrong one!!! Well, here is when the problem arises!!!!!!...Due to my big ignorance I open the file fstab and when it says dev=/dev/scd1 [IT IS MY CD-R] I put something like this "dev=/dev/scd1,/dev/cdrom" After that I rebooted and neither I can run the label failsafe nor the "normal" linux entrie on lilo. Moreover I cannot bot in "linux 2-2.secure". When I tried to boot in any of those entries it stops in the "Checking root filesystem" step with a msg like this : " The Superblocks on the device are corrupted, try to run an fsck" and it says more things that I do not remember now. However, one thing sounds strange for me.....It's says that I had to run fsck when my root partition is on a journallised file system [EXT3] Well, I know that this post might be very large, but... Unless I have a solution, I'll have to re-install Linux-Mandrake 8.1 Thanks in Advance Nicolas Gomez Montevideo, URUGUAY
