I recall, time after time, the helpful guru's (What is plural of 'guru'?) ask for the explicit 'command' and the explicit 'error message'. ;-) Chuck cr wrote: > > On Friday 30 August 2002 05:07, grottoBoy rant wrote: > > Don't know if you've fixed this already, I don't know about configuring for > > CDRW as scsi emulation or whatever, but were you specifying iso9660 > > filesystem type when attempting to mount, ie. > > mount -t iso9660 /dev/(?) /mnt/cdrom > > man mount for syntax > > > > later > > > > Yes, I was, exactly that. > > I've shelved the problem for now as other things took up my time, however > I've managed to find the original instructions I used to configure the thing, > so I'll work through them (as soon as I have enough time) and see if that > fixes it. > > Thanks > > cr > - > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-newbie" in > the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html > Please read the FAQ at http://www.linux-learn.org/faqs - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-newbie" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.linux-learn.org/faqs
