Hi there, I'm just finished LFS and am trying to start BLFS. The problem
I have is that I can't mount my cdrom drive in LFS, it complains aout
bad superblock, and that it cant find the mount-point in eu=ither fsatb
or mtab. Here's my complete /etc/fstab
[snip]
/dev/cdrom /media/cdrom auto fs=cdfss,ro,procuid,nosuid,nodev,exec,iocharset=ut

First of all, do you have a /dev/cdrom? That should be a symlink to the real device, often /dev/hdc in the IDE world, but it could be another one.


What happens if you remove that line completely from /etc/fstab and try as root:

mount /dev/[real cdrom node] /media/cdrom

Again, [real cdrom node] could be hdc or hdd or something like that depending on your hardware, and assuming it's an IDE drive.
