Re: cdrom mount problem
Hi chris, You first have to unmount the cdrom before you can mount a new cd, you can do that by typing: umount /cdrom greets, Martijn On Thursday 18 March 2004 16:35, Chris wrote: *This message was transferred with a trial version of CommuniGate(tm) Pro* In summary: the only way to mount my cdrom after burning an ISO is to reboot first.

Thanks, Chris Please don't top-post. I have used burncd since 4.5, and I have never mounted a CD-R to burn it. I'm sorry, I have no light to shed on your problem, just wanted to keep your confusion to a minimum. Again, burning a CD-R under FreeBSD with burncd does NOT involve mounting the drive first. -- Joshua Beauty is transitory.

Re[2]: cdrom mount problem
*This message was transferred with a trial version of CommuniGate(tm) Pro* In summary: the only way to mount my cdrom after burning an ISO is to reboot first. Try ejecting and re-loading the disk. I've seen some firmware that gets confused easily in these cases... I use the CDRW to burn backup files every night via cron, so driving to the machine (45 min away) and cycling the drive is not feasible. Further, this was never an issue with 4.x releases, and if I'm not mistaken, 5.1 either. I think this started somewhere with 5.2 and beyond. You first have to unmount the cdrom before you can mount a new cd, you can do that by typing: umount /cdrom Normally it's not in a mounted state after burning, as best I recall. But I've tried that several times anyway, to no avail. Thanks for the suggestion. Looks like bug. Submit problem report on it, is only way it will be looked at and fixed by 5.x development team. This is possible, I guess. Makes since, as this problem cropped up after upgrading. I could be wrong, but it seems that since mount does not do anything different from the point just before reboot and just after reboot, perhaps it's more likely the burncd command not releasing the cdrw drive properly, or something like that...
