When I use /dev/hdd (the ide location of the drive) I get this when I try to mount the drive:
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdd,
or too many mounted file systems
(could this be the IDE device where you in fact use
ide-scsi so that sr0 or sda or so is needed?)


My fstab entry is this:
/dev/hdd        /cdrw   iso9660 ro,user,noauto          0       0

I only have 8 file systems listed and not all of them are mounted.

Thanks,
Steve

Steve,

It only looks like a SCSI device to cdrecord. Its still
located at /dev/hd? where ? is the ide location ide0 -
master is a ( /dev/hda ), ide0 - slave is b (/dev/hdb),
etc. You should be able to mount the device by using the
/dev/hd? device normally.

Hello,

I've recently gotten my CD-RW drive setup (using
ide-scsi). cd-record -scanbus tells me it's located at /dev/sg0 (ran it as
non-root to get me the permissions error so it would list the device). Setting up /etc/fstab with /dev/sg0 as the device and /cdrw as the
mount point (I copied my /dev/cdrom entry and modified it). Mounting of
course tells me that /dev/sg0 is not a valid block device. A google
search didn't turn up much except telling me about mknod, but the man
page is a bit too cryptic for my liking. How do I make /dev/sg0 a
block device or what other method can I use so I can read a CD-RW disc in
a 2.4 kernel?


Thanks,
Steve
