 is an iso9660 format expected?

No, in that case a UFS format is expected.

 where does one look for error messages?

You have them already.

There is no filesystem support for mounting gzipped tar files as
filesystems, so you'll have to use it as a raw device.
 tar -xzf /dev/acd1
should extract the data.

no, i tried it with tar file. it got maybe 20% of way thru with 
unexpected eof.

with tar.gz:
 tar:  /dev/acd1: Cannot read: Input/output error
 tar: At beginning of tape, quitting now
 tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
i just want to back up to a cd.

I added a 3 GB HD to my FreeBSD computer (as a second

 when I try to mount it with 'mount /dev/ad3s1e /data' it
 complains of an incorrect super block.  Any solutions?

Did you actually create a filesystem on the new disk?  Try:

newfs /dev/ad3s1e
tunefs -n enable /dev/ad3s1e
mount -t ufs /dev/ad3s1e /data

Cheers,

OK, Thanks.  Fixed.
It looks like I forgot to W (Write) the partiion edit
when doing the label.  Thanks and sorry for the bother.


Matthew Seaman wrote:

   newfs /dev/ad3s1e
 
  When I do this it says the 'e' partition is unavailable

 What's the output from:

 disklabel -r ad3s1

 There should be a line for the 'e' partition, and the fstype should be
 4.2BSD

   tunefs -n enable /dev/ad3s1e
   mount -t ufs /dev/ad3s1e /data

 Cheers,

 Matthew

That's probably 'cos you're trying to mount your cdrom as a UFS
file-system instead of cd9660. Assuming that your cdrom device is
/dev/acd0c, and /cdrom exists, try:

mount_cd9660 /dev/acd0c /cdrom

Cheers.

try this, then:

umount -f /cdrom

then:

mount_cd9660 /dev/acd0c /cdrom

after this, check your /etc/fstab, make sure it has an entry like:

/dev/acd0c /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0

if not, add that. from then on, as root, you can simply type mount /cdrom
and it should just work.

 try this, then:

 umount -f /cdrom

first, it has to be mounted and it isn't



 then:

 mount_cd9660 /dev/acd0c /cdrom



the same

 after this, check your /etc/fstab, make sure it has an entry like:

 /dev/acd0c /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0

it is added this line in fstab



 if not, add that. from then on, as root, you can simply type mount /cdrom
 and it should just work.

I have tried something else like adding some pack with sysinstall and it
told me that could not mount cdrom.
I think the problem is hardware.
Thank you for the answers! I think subject is closed!
