E: Unable to change to /media/cdrom/ - chdir (2: No such file or directory) E: No CD-ROM could be auto-detected or found using the default mount point. You may try the --cdrom option to set the CD-ROM mount point. See 'man apt-cdrom' for more information about the CD-ROM auto-detection and mount point.

This is not a matter of how to make it work. I know how to fix it in a couple of different ways, but the user couldn't have the same clue. I can mount the cd and tell apt-cdrom where it is; I can adjust the fstab to say where is the correct mounting point for a device; And also I can do what mvo said, but it will not fix the bug.

I haven't checked that yet, but as a workaoround you can use: -o Acquire::cdrom::mount=/cdrom (or the hal path) -- apt-cdrom add fails to mount the medium https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/115536 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

You can also give -o APT::CDROM::NoMount=True if you know that the dir is already mounted and there is no need to mount it again. -- apt-cdrom add fails to mount the medium https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/115536 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

** Also affects: synaptic (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed ** Description changed: Binary package hint: apt While running 'apt-cdrom add' in my notebook its always fails saying: E: Failed to mount the cdrom. APT looks into /etc/fstab to get the default cdrom mount point. My fstab looks like: - /dev/cdrom/cdrom udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0 0 + /dev/cdrom/cdrom/ udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0 0 APT tries to mount '/cdrom/' instead of just '/cdrom' (withou slash). If I change fstab and remove the slash from the mount point everything works well. Suggestion: a) APT needs to use the hal mounting point instead the /etc/fstab, so it would works with no mention in fstab b) The default fstab mounting point should be '/cdrom/' instead of just '/cdrom' c) The default mounting point where apt looks into should be '/cdrom' ** Description changed: Binary package hint: apt While running 'apt-cdrom add' in my notebook its always fails saying: E: Failed to mount the cdrom.
