Hello everybody, First I would like to thank everybody for the postings answering my e-mail. The problem was that I did not installed alsa-utils.

[gentoo-user] Problems mounting CD-Rom device [solved]
Hello everybody! Thank you Aaron for your posting, at the moment I received your e-mail I was just reading an article about mounting cd's and that audio cd's cannot be mounted ;-) I would like to ask you how can I point my cdplayer to my cdrom-device? I am using (well, I am trying to use ...) cdplay from a shell. When I type cdplay -i (for listing tracks), it recognises perfectly the tracks on the CD. When I type cdplay -c it starts playing, but I cannot hear any sound. When I type cdplay -I it states about the track it is playing at this moment. I have read the README file corresponding to the program cdplay, but it is a very short file and it only states the way to use the program. Is there anybody who could help me with this issue? (Perhaps I need to install some more alsa-tools, or something like that - only for your information: I installed Gentoo 2005.0 (stage3-athlon-xp) on my laptop and since then I only updated the portage tree and installed fetchmail, procmail, nbsmtp, mutt, muttprint, pcmcia-cs, prism54-firmware - and I think, nothing else). Thank you very much! Bye, Nelly -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

You can't mount *audio* CD's because they don't contain a filesystem. Just point your favorite CD-player software directly to the CD *device* (/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 ?) and it will be happy. -- Arran -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

[gentoo-user] Problems mounting CD-Rom device
Thanks to everybody for answering to my posting. Now I was able as a normal user to mount a cdrom with: paul # mount /mnt/cdrom but most of my cd's that I have burned or normal audio-cd's, I am not able to mount. Not as user and not as root. I've got the following message. As user: "I've could not determine the filesystem type, and none was specified." If I try it again as user: paul # mount -t iso9660 /mnt/cdrom, than I've got again the following message: "mount: only root can do that!". If I try as user: paul # mount -t auto /mnt/cdrom the error message I've got is the following: "mount: only root can do that!". If I try the same as superuser than happens that: root $ mount /mnt/cdrom mount: you must specify the filesystem type. root $ mount -t iso9660 /mnt/cdrom . than I've got an output of how to use 'mount' correctly. The same happens when I try: root $ mount -t auto /mnt/cdrom If somebody knows what to do, I would be really happy about it (I would like to hear my audio-cd's, for example). Thanks to everybody in advance! Bye, Nelly -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

I thought ro for readonly and rw for > read+write. My cd-rom device is a cd-writer. Yes, but writing to it is done through different mechanisms. In case of writing ISO images to CD-R(W) media, this is done with cdrecord, which accesses the hardware directly. In case of packet writing to CD-RW, which enables you to use the CD-RW media like a harddisk, you have to use another device (/dev/pktcdvd/). So for both cases, specifying rw here is not completely wrong, but useless, since cdroms will allways be mounted ro anyway. HTH...

That is correct, mounting like this can only be done by root. If you want to mount something from fstab, give only the mount point. mount /mnt/cdrom -- Neil Bothwick This tagline is umop apisdn pgptvUHgNm6Cl.pgp Description: PGP signature

Not quite sure, but I'd guess that this form of mount doesn't consult /etc/fstab. Did you try just "mount /mnt/cdrom"? HTH...
