Hi all: I just completed my first install of Gentoo. And am very new to command line stuff. My problem is that my Dvd which is master on ide channel 2 is seen as /mnt/cdrom. And my CDRW which is secondary on ide channel 2 is not seen. In /dev I have sym links for cdrom0 and cdrom1 and they seem to point to the right devices. In mount there is only a cdrom. My other problem is the floppy is shown a locked deviece. My fstab is:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information. # $Header: /home/cvsroot/gentoo-src/rc-scripts/etc/fstab,v 1.10 2002/11/18 19:39:22 azarah Exp $ # # noatime turns of atimes for increased performance (atimes normally aren't # needed; notail increases performance of ReiserFS (at the expense of storage # efficiency). It's safe to drop the noatime options if you want and to # switch between notail and tail freely. # <fs> <mountpoint> <type> <opts> <dump/pass> # NOTE: If your BOOT partition is ReiserFS, add the notail option to opts. /dev/hda1 /boot ext2 noauto,noatime 1 1 /dev/hda3 / reiserfs noatime 0 0 /dev/hda2 none swap sw 0 0 /dev/hda4 /home reiserfs noatime 0 0 /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,ro 0 0 /dev/cdroms/cdrom1 /mnt/cdrom1 iso9660 noauto,ro 0 0 proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 # glibc 2.2 and above expects tmpfs to be mounted at /dev/shm for # POSIX shared memory (shm_open, shm_unlink).
