Debian Hardware :: No Common Cd-rom Drive Was Detected Cd-rom Modules?
Feb 19, 2010
I am a frequent user of debian I think I'll be a lot here start immediately with a problem, and I hope that someone has already happened and found a solution. In practice I have to install a IBM x3250 m3 and the cd installer debian lenny 5.0.3 or 5.0.4 do not want it to find the CD-ROM drive, a module to mount the drive after the bootstrap the exact error on the screen comes up after selecting the language and keyboard: no common cd-rom drive was detected cd-rom modules
try to install ubuntu 8.04 into ibm server x3200 m3, but fail. the process stop when no common cd-rom drive was detected. googling it and tried with: guide in [URL] but still not work, what else can be try to solve this problem?
I am trying to install Ubuntu 10.10 on my AMD64 system. I am using the distribution ubuntu-10.10-dvd-AMD64.iso. The image was downloaded and burnedt into an installation DVD.
During installation system hangs with the following message on the screen:
No common CD-ROM drive was detected.
I tried "Alt-F2" to a console and typed: modprobe ide-scsi and get a message Module ide_scsi not found.
I tried changing the BIOS for the SATA controller from RAID to IDE, didn't work.
The CD-ROM I am using is a hp BDDVDRW CH20L SCSI CDROM.
I want to install Ubuntu 10.10 via a DVD-ROM but I faild. I got the message "no common cd-rom drive was detected." I have tried to install ubuntu 11.4 and failed too.
Hardware Setting:
DVD-ROM was attached to SATA 3.0 port. SATA controller was set to IDE mode. PCH is CougarPoint.
I use the same hardware setting to install Red Hat 6.0 and it works fine. I tried following boot option but in vain: noapic, acpi=off, nodmraid, all_generic_ide. It is ok to boot via a live usb but ubuntu 10.10 still can't find DVD-ROM. I have to use the hardware setting I descripted to install Ubuntu 10.10.
dmesg:
Code:
[ 1.892198] ata1: SATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0x3098 ctl 0x30ac bmdma 0x3070 irq 19 [ 3.309652] ata1.01: failed to resume link (SControl 0) [ 3.469636] ata1.00: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 300)
I am trying to install Debian 5.0 "Lenny" on a PC with a very new hardware config (i3 processor, DDR3 RAM,LG SATA DVD drive, and Seagate SATA HDD). During the hardware detection phase of installation, I get a message saying the driver for my CD drive is not known, and asking me to select one manually. The options I get are only 'devcdrom', which does not work, and my installation cannot proceed.
I tried the following:
1. I read in a similar query that to use SATA DVD drives, I will have to set some boot options, so tried entering install libatapi_enabled=1 as an install option. This showed 'unknown parameter' error followed by same problem.
2. My Intel m/b BIOS has an option to set the DVD drive to "Native" or "Legacy", default is Native. I also tried changing this to "Legacy". Still same problem.
3. Read that I have to point to different drivers, but don't know how to do this during the installation.
I'm having problem in installing debian 7.5.0 on Dell Power Edge R 470 1U Rack Server ( Not Sure If am using RAID 1 ) whereby the hard drive is not detected. This server is running 2 Proc/2x1.2 SAS HDD . The installation went ok until i reached into partition section whereby the drives is not there to be selected , throwing an error " No disk drive detected , Driver needed fro your disk drive "
I've tried to use debian-7.8.0-amd64-DVD-1.iso

I am using Cen OS 5. I have configured Samba server on it. I create a accounts suppose tom and 2nd is jarry in my samba server and map it in my windows xp computer as P drive (Private Drive) where the users can access their home directories. When tom tom enter into own account he can access his own home folder and same position with jarry. I want to create a common share drive using samba where all samba users can keep their data with their respective folders normally s drive i.e share drive. They can create file and folders and even all users can access the files of each others. Like tom can access jarry files and jarry can access tom files or folders to share their office work with each others.I want to know is it possible in samba to create a common share drive where all users share their files each others.
I have installed php 5.3.6-4 on centOS 5.6. When i try to install some modules of php then it gives an error
php53-common-5.3.3-1.el5_6.1.i386 from updates has depsolving problems --> php53-common conflicts with php-common Error: php53-common conflicts with php-common

I have reinstall it twice but each time i get same error.
- Server installed in wired network. The server has a static IP. It has Ubuntu Server 9.10 installed.
- I have two Ubuntu notebooks (Ubuntu Desktop 9.10) and I want them to connect (mount) to the server on bootup (fstab or equal) if the network is available.
- I don't want to store the password in cleartext in the fstab file. So what other options do I have? What would be the most common practice here?
I have a Transcend 4GB USB flash drive that suddenly stopped working. However, when I insert it into the USB slot, the light on the drive glows, but I'm unable to mount the drive, neither does ubuntu detect it.I disconnected the flash drive, and then run `dmesg | tail`. The result was this :
[ 623.940610] scsi7 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices [ 623.940928] usb-storage: device found at 6 [ 623.940931] usb-storage: waiting for device to settle before scanning
I upgraded to testing to 2-6-39-2-amd64 successfully (from 2-6-38...), but when I start to upgrade software packages, there is an error E: postgresql-common: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 I tried to pkill -9 postgresql-common and restart the package upgrade, but got the same error message. Here is the dpkg.log
I am trying to follow this site [URL]... but I cannot install the bstheme-common package. I download the .deb and then try sudo dpkg -i bstheme-common-_0.1-1_all and I get this: Preparing to replace bstheme-common 0.1-1 (using bstheme-common_0.1-1_all.deb) Unpacking replacement bstheme-common
I want set up VPN on my VPS but when i try to turn on tun/tap i see:
:/lib/modules# modprobe tun FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.18-194.17.1.el5.028stab070.7PAE/modules.dep: No such file or directory os : debian 5 (folder lib/modules is empty)
I'm not very sure when this issue started. Anyway, the system finally boots and I haven't had any further problems, but I somehow notice the booting to be a bit slower since this error appeared and I don't like watching the red letters that say "failed" every time I switch the computer on. I googled this before posting it, and other users have had this issue, but the solutions that worked for them didn't work for me.

Some problems do exist and downgrading may be a better option.
I need to look at bugreports at nividia but not sure how. LOL guess it's time to google.
I installed apache2 and mysql database on a Debian system. It is using reverse proxy on apache to redirect requests to apache2 running on any machine which is on Xen server as a Virtual host. I tried to install Drupal on it. Every thing went fine till I pointed my browser to: http://IP[/url] of LAN where Drupal was installed/drupal then I see an installation page of Drupal which welcomes me. I click install in English then it can not proceed to connect with database. Database configuration: Your web server does not appear to support any common database types. Check with your hosting provider to see if they offer any databases that Drupal supports.
I have created a database and username for Drupal separately. What should I check to. There is one more error http://Public IP/some location/ Is showing me contents of Document Root but there is a folder named drupal on it. When I click on it I get error. Not Found. The requested URL /drupal/ was not found on this server. Apache/2.2.9 (Debian) PHP/5.2.6-1+lenny8 with Suhosin-Patch proxy_html/3.0.0 Server at
What things should I check in for? I am also getting errors like: - Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.0.1 for ServerName on individual DomU's what should I check in. and on Dom0 when restarting apache2 I get following error. - Reloading web server config: apache2apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1 for ServerName [Wed Apr 14 15:23:05 2010] [warn] NameVirtualHost *:80 has no VirtualHosts
I've been trying to load my pcmcia network card driver "xirc2ps_cs" at startup with no success. I have added "modprobe xirc2ps_cs" to the rc.modules file but it doesn't load at startup. Curiously, though, if I execute rc.modules AFTER the machine has booted it will load the modules just fine. Just not during the boot up process. Thinking that hotstart might have been causing problems I've disabled hotstart (chmod -x) temporarilly to remove it from the picture, but there was no change.
I have three drives: 2x320 and 1x1.5TB. On one of the 320's I have Ubuntu and on the other I have Win7. The 1.5TB drive is NTFS and I can access it from within windows no problem.
The problem is that Ubuntu does not see it at all. In Gparted it does not show up in the drop down list on the top right. In Disk Utility it doesn't show up either.
I have Red hat Enterprise 5 , red hat 9 and a few other versions too . The issue is whenever i am trying to boot from it , it boots fine only to end up saying local cdrom not found do you want to specify your .. thing ! whereas all fedora disks are running perfectly without any problem .
NFS means Network File System, right? If so, it is not needed for most users. I donot understand why those modules are started automatically in Jessie. How can i safely remove those module(s) ?
To start off with, I'll put the information as best I can that I think would help everyone figure out what it is that I want to do:My Laptop is a Dell Inspiron 1545I have a Broadcom BCM4312 802.11b/g (rev. 01) Wifi Driver (according to lspci)Take care, I already have it working!I installed the driver for it (as best I could) from I am running Debian 5.08 Lenny amd64My wireless internet works via the instructions from My question is how I can set it up so that every time I boot, I don't have to run:modprobe ieee80211_crypt_tkipinsmod wl.koIn the terminal (after using su and then going to the folder that contains the wl.ko file).
I've been trying to find this on the internet, but it seems that I have been unlucky in that department. This is the first time in about 6 years I've used linux (back in high school I tinkered with Slackware, Gentoo, and Vector, recently tried openSUSE but I've always been curious to try out Debian).
I have been using Fedora for a while. I decided to upgrade, and that I wanted to do a network install, but I didn't want to go for Fedora 14 when 15 comes out in a couple of months, so when I found openSUSE 11.4 was released this month, and also supported a net install, I decided to go for that. Yesterday I downloaded the net install CD. I burnt it from Windows. It burnt and installed successfully. When I got into the system this morning, it doesn't detect my DVD drive at all. There is no device for it in /dev, nor is anything shown by /usr/sbin/hwinfo --cdrom. When I insert a CD/DVD, it (the drive) detects it, but does nothing more. If I boot to Windows, it works fine. It is connected properly (I built it myself, and upgraded the drive about six weeks ago).The DVD drive is a LG GH22LS50 SATA one, connected to the SATA3 port on a Gigabyte GA-P67A-UD3 motherboard.I found this in dmesg:
Code: [ 1.528777] ata2.00: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 300) [ 1.528789] ata2.01: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 300)
I'm using a kingston data traveler. I've only used it on windows before. The drive doesn't get detected automatically so I tried this command mount /dev/sdb ./mnt_point
which gives me a message saying to specify the filesystem type after some googling I found out it probably uses fat32(other types didn't work) But if I try
mount -t fat32 /dev/sdb ./mnt_point it says it doesn't recognize that filesystem type. Anyone got a fix? I wish it were as simple as it is on windows
I have a 1TB USB 3.0 verbatim portable drive. When I connect it to my IBM Thinkpad R500 OpenSUSE 11.4 does not detect the drive as being plugged in. All my USB 2 devices work fine. Do I need to configure something to get this drive going?
My Toshiba 500Gb USB hard drive is not being detected anymore when i insert it in 9.10. It only started doing this from last week, it was fine before (and it works fine in Windows XP). The connections are fine and all, because when i type "lsusb", i see it as follows:
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 19d2:0063 ONDA Communication S.p.A. Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 002 Device 004: ID 0930:0b09 Toshiba Corp.
I am trying to mount a 2nd NTFS storage disk in my new installation on Ubuntu 10.10, I can see it in the disk manager, but cannot access the files, I tried following the steps on this on another thread and i got the following error:
I have 1tb Seagate Freeagent NTFS External HD. I have Windows Vista Ultimate SP1 with dual boot as Ubuntu. I'm primarily a windows user, since i'm not that well acquainted with linux. External Hard Drive does not detect- when i connect it..it just gives a whirring sound and the "My Computer" window hangs. Figured out the cause- and temporary solution- The drive should do principle mount automatically. It won't if the file system is not "clean". That is possible if the drive was connected while you hibernated Windows, or if you did not properly disconnect the drive.
I booted with ubuntu and did the following- sudo fdisk -l and got the following: Disk /dev/sdb: 1000.2 GB, 1000204884992 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 121601 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0x396e2b4d
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sdb1 1 121601 976760001 7 HPFS/NTFS
Then I typed: sudo mkdir /media/FreeAgent sudo chmod 777 /media/FreeAgent And wrapped it up with editing fstab with the following code: #FreeAgent USB Drive /dev/sdf1 /media/FreeAgent ntfs defaults 0 0
Now the browser window for the freeagent hard drive pops up and I can access everything. I try to shutdown the computer but it won't as long as the hard disk is connected. So I have to pull the usb out. And the problem remains the same. I want the hard disk to be detected normally on my windows/linux (like normal usbs work-plug it in and it works). Also have no clue how to work a temporary solution like this with windows yet. I have boot with ubuntu everytime and repeat these steps when I want to access it.
