 |
|
Hello.
I just installed DSL-N on the Harddrive of this IBM Notebook. Everything seems to be fine and working. It tried to mount the cd-rom into the Filesystem but it doesn't work.
My first attempt was to do it with the fstab entry:
[code:1]mount /cdrom[/code:1]
mount: /dev/cdrom is not a valid bock device
Ok, next one:
[code:1]mount /dev/hdc /cdrom[/code:1]
Same output as above.
I thought maybe it wants to know the filesystem:
[code:1]mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdc /cdrom[/code:1]
NO success.
dmesg output:
[code:1]Probing ide interface ide1...
hdc: CRN-8241B, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive
ide1 at 0x170-0x177, 0x376 on irq 15
[/code:1]
Later in dmesg output:
[code:1]ide-cd: passig drive hdc to ide-scsi emulation.[/code:1]
I feel somehow stupid... maybe someone can help me?[/code] |

I'm not dead yet! I think my problem is caused by this:
[code:1]ide-cd: passig drive hdc to ide-scsi emulation.[/code:1]
I booted in the LiveCD and checked the dmesg, and the only thing that was different was that this line was missing. And the CD-ROM works fine.
So how can i prevent the system from "passing drive hdc to ide-scsi emulation"?
