Is any one else having problems with removable disk drives and kernel-2418-12?
On three different system, each having either a cdrom/dvd as primary master and a cdrw
as secondary master.
Here is /etc/fstab for 1:
/dev/hda5 / reiserfs notail 1 1
none /dev/pts devpts mode=0620 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
/dev/hda8 /home reiserfs notail 1 2
/dev/hda7 /home/cooker reiserfs notail 1 2
/dev/hda6 /home/safe reiserfs notail 1 2
/dev/hde /mnt/cdrom iso9660
iocharset=iso8859-1,ro,nosuid,noauto,exec,user,nodev 0 0
/dev/scd0 /mnt/cdrom2 iso9660
iocharset=iso8859-1,ro,nosuid,noauto,exec,user,nodev 0 0
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy vfat
iocharset=iso8859-1,umask=0,sync,nosuid,user,noauto,nodev,codepage=850,unhide 0 0
/dev/hdb3 /mnt/windows vfat defaults 0 0
/dev/sdb4 /mnt/zip vfat
iocharset=iso8859-1,umask=0,sync,nosuid,user,noauto,nodev,codepage=850 0 0
/dev/sda4 /mnt/zip2 vfat
iocharset=iso8859-1,umask=0,nosuid,user,noauto,nodev,codepage=850 0 0
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
none /tmp tmpfs defaults 0 0
/dev/hda2 swap swap defaults 0 0
With the 2418-12 kernel a disk in the cdrom must be accessed as /mnt/cdrom2 if I try
to access it though /mnt/cdrom -error-
mount: special device /dev/hde does not exist
There is no access point for the cdrw which should be /dev/sd0 /mnt/cdrom2.
This same error occurs identically on all 3 systems and occurs with supermount either
enabled or disabled.
If I boot to the 2418-11 kernel all drives can be accessed properly
dvd as /mnt/cdrom
cdrw as /mnt/cdrom2
and this also holds true for all 3 systems.
