Problem 1: In FC3 when I normally mount the CD using only "mount
/mnt/cdrom" command, the CD mounts using HFS format, and no RPM packages
are available, same is for windows also. Now I use "mount /mnt/cdrom -t
hfs", then it shows some errors and also indicates that this CD is locked;
same error for joliet also. But in RH8 I was able to mount the CD in HFS
format. Why is it happening in FC3 as it normally mount the CD as HFS.
are you sure fc3 mounts cd-s with "-t hfs" ? i thought it should be iso9660. check in /etc/fstab to be sure.
I am able to mount with "-t hfs" in RH8 but unable to do same in FC3 which does it automatically
Problem 2: When I tried to mount the CD with the type joliet, it shows that
joliet is not supported by the kernel. What I have to do, to support the
joliet in the kernel? Kernel recompiling with the joliet support or not. I
dont know if there is anything like that in the kernel configuration
option.If anything other, then please indicate that.
joliet is not file system, it is an extension to the iso9660 standard. it is something you include or exclude while writing a cd. you can, of course, use the "nojoliet" option while mounting a iso9660 volume. read the manoage for mount to get more details.
thanks for it
