Try; $ grep ISO9660 /usr/src/linux/.config If it says CONFIG_ISO9660_FS=y - its built into the kernel, and should be working CONFIG_ISO9660_FS=m - its built as a module, so try 'modprobe iso9660' and attempt the mount again (but it should load the module automatically # CONFIG_ISO9660_FS is not set - you need to build it. You might as well just build it as a module, so you don't have to change your kernel and reboot etc. Just update your .config file, then run make modules make modules_install modprobe iso9660 and try to mount it again. -Ad -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

[gentoo-user] mount cdrom: No buffer space available
I'm going by http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml? part=1chap=8 to mount the cdrom and cdrw drives, but it's failing. There are two optical drives: a CD-ROM and a CD-R/W; both drives work physically. When I enter mount /mnt/cdrom1 or mount /mnt/cdrw1 then I hear a drive spin before it fails, but mount /dev/cdrom doesn't cause any noise. They all fail, error messages: arrakis ~ # arrakis ~ # arrakis ~ # ll /dev/cd* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 Nov 21 23:36 /dev/cdrom - hdc lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 Nov 21 23:36 /dev/cdrom1 - hdd lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 Nov 21 23:36 /dev/cdrw1 - hdd arrakis ~ # arrakis ~ # cat /etc/fstab /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom autonoauto,user 0 0 /dev/cdrom1 /mnt/cdrom1 autonoauto,user 0 0 /dev/cdrw1 /mnt/cdrw1 autonoauto,user 0 0 /dev/hdb1 /boot ext2defaults1 2 /dev/hdb2 noneswapsw 0 0 /dev/hdb3 / ext3noatime 0 1 none/proc procdefaults0 0 none/dev/shmtmpfs defaults0 0 /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00/mnt/VolGroup00/LogVol00ext3 users,rw0 0 arrakis ~ # arrakis ~ # mount -a arrakis ~ # arrakis ~ # mount /mnt/cdrom mount: block device /dev/cdrom is write-protected, mounting read-only mount: No buffer space available arrakis ~ # arrakis ~ # mount /mnt/cdrom1 mount: block device /dev/cdrom1 is write-protected, mounting read-only mount: No buffer space available arrakis ~ # arrakis ~ # mount /mnt/cdrw1 mount: block device /dev/cdrw1 is write-protected, mounting read-only mount: No buffer space available arrakis ~ # thanks, Thufir -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

A Google seems to suggest that mount: No buffer space available is commonly returned when the device is already mounted. The manpage for `mount` indicates that `mount -a` will mount all devices listed in /etc/fstab, so your output suggests to me that the CD drives are mounted when you issue this command - no wonder they fail when you try to mount them again separately! I don't use optical drives very much under Linux, so please forgive me if I'm mistaken. I'd think that `df` would show the mount status of optical drives, so IMO it'd be useful to post the output of `mount -va df mount -v /mnt/cdrom` Stroller. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
