Hi, i'm running Potato 2.2.17. My cdrom stopped working yesterday, for no apparent reason. The error messages vary. Usually, it's "No media found" but sometimes it says something about a bad superblock and trying to mount a logical drive.
I'm stumped on how to remedy this. I've tried both home-brewed cd-r's and the "official" Potato discs, both of which worked fine until yesterday. Below is my fstab and dmesg. *************************************** # /etc/fstab: static file system information. # # <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass> /dev/hda1 / ext2 defaults,errors= remount-ro 0 1 /dev/hda2 none swap sw 0 0 proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/fd0 /floppy auto defaults,user,noauto 0 0 /dev/cdrom /cdrom iso9660 defaults,ro,user,noauto 0 0 /dev/hdb1 /home ext2 rw 0 2 ********************************************************************** ********************************* Linux version 2.2.17 ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version 2.95.2 20000313 ( Debian GNU/Linux)) #1 Sun Jun 25 09:24:41 EST 2000 Console: colour VGA+ 80x25 Calibrating delay loop... 119.60 BogoMIPS Memory: 126920k/131072k available (1732k kernel code, 416k reserved, 1864k data, 140k init) Checking if this processor honours the WP bit even in supervisor mode...
