> mount: special device /dev/cdrom does not exist Sounds like /dev/cdrom is symlinked to the wrong "real" device.
What device is your CDROM? Probably hdc or hdd? hda = primary master hdb = primary slave hdc = secondary master hdd = secondary slave Try mount /dev/hd? /mnt Once you get it working, re-link your /dev/cdrom to the right device: ln -s /dev/hd? /dev/cdrom ----- Original Message ----- From: Robert-Jan Kuijvenhoven <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: debian-user <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, May 01, 1999 10:02 AM Subject: Mounting my cdrom > Hello everybody, > > I have installed slink and am trying to mount my cdrom.
