| 104500 | 2002-12-09 08:45:00 | When operating in a minimal linux environment (all on a floppy!) what is the command line for mounting the cdrom. I would have thought: mount -t /dev/cdrom /mnt but this line needs detail on the filesystem (vfat/ext3 etc) doesn it - Also. I not sure that /dev/cdrom is correct in this environment also ?:| |

| 104501 | 2002-12-09 09:06:00 | You will need to specify the filesystem after the -t. Try: mount -t auto /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom If it doesn't like auto (some don't), use "iso9660" instead. But, /dev/cdrom probably won't exist. Just use either /dev/hdc (secondary master) or /dev/hdd (sec slave). |
