CD mount problems in kernel 2.6.9

Posted: 20 Dec 2004 04:55 PM PST

Hi,

I have module-init-tools version 3.1 installed. I could not find ide-cd
module. I went and reconfigure kernel with CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDECD=m
option and found ide-cd module.

But it still doesn't work (and I am getting a different error)
eject -v /dev/hdc
eject: device name is `/dev/hdc'
eject: expanded name is `/dev/hdc'
eject: `/dev/hdc' is not mounted
eject: `/dev/hdc' is not a mount point
eject: `/dev/hdc' is a multipartition device
eject: trying to eject `/dev/hdc' using CD-ROM eject command
eject: CD-ROM eject command failed
eject: trying to eject `/dev/hdc' using SCSI commands
eject: SCSI eject failed
eject: trying to eject `/dev/hdc' using floppy eject command
eject: floppy eject command failed
eject: trying to eject `/dev/hdc' using tape offline command
eject: tape offline command failed
eject: unable to eject, last error: Invalid argument

Mount returns the following:
mount -t udf,iso9660 -o noauto,owner,kudzu,ro /dev/hdc /tmp
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdc,
or too many mounted file systems
(could this be the IDE device where you in fact use
ide-scsi so that sr0 or sda or so is needed?)

And dmesg returns:

ACPI: Found ECDT
hdc: UJDA755yDVD/CDRW, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive
Vendor: MATSHITA Model: UJDA755yDVD/CDRW Rev: 1.71
Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 02
Uniform CD-ROM driver Revision: 3.20
Attached scsi CD-ROM sr0 at scsi0, channel 0, id 0, lun 0

Far simpler solution: go to http://btmgr.sourceforge.net and get smart
Boot Manager. To make a disk you only need to download a single
tiny file: sbminst for Linux or sbminst.exe for Windows.

Run this to create a single boot floppy that will allow you to boot from
ANY CD, or any disk in your machine. I carry one around with my Knoppix
disk.
 

Totaly agree, Fedora Core 3 and Mandrake 10.1 Official are both fresh,
widely available and work well. There's no reason to use old stuff that
has no support and doesn't work with the latest hardware. Especially when
the price difference is negligible.

unfortunately, it didn't help. All I hear is a repeated 'trplplp',
with intervals of about 1 second...

Needed help with Linux installation

Posted: 18 Dec 2004 10:40 AM PST



For those of you who maybe trying to do an initial Linux install
from the CD set and get as far as doing the base install then get the
message:

"deboot strap exited with an error (return value 1)"

followed by the error message:

"Failure trying to run chroat/target dpkg force depend "

and then it tells you the install will terminate and that it
appears you are trying to do the Linux install over a previously
installed version of Linux.

The TM got around this error by not accepting the default position
of the partition to do the install on which was "hda1." Changing it to
the larger folder "hda3" (note your setup cold be different) solved the
problem and gave the system plenty of hard disk space to install
everything it needed to. It appears Linux was trying to install the
base system files into the boot partition instead of the larger
partition designed to hold the system files.

So if you get the error doing an install check to see what
partition you are loading the base system into and make sure it is the
correct one.

mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time,
