Hardware :: Can't Mount CDRW Drive
Aug 13, 2010I have installed the software from my CDRW drive. But when I boot from my hard drive, I can't mount the CDROM.

View 3 RepliesI have the following combo dvd/cdrw drive: 'MATSHITA' 'UJDA730 DVD/CDRW'
Currently, the only way I get it to work is by manually mounting it, i.e.
Code:
mount -t iso9660 /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0
How can I get this device to auto-mount when a cd is in it? Prior to Fedora 12, I had Ubuntu and it would auto-mount successfully.
NOTE:
I've already tried adding the following to fstab file:
Code:
/dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 iso9660 noauto,user,exec,rw,sync 0 0

I need to know how to blank and burn a CDRW from the CLI.
My computer has two optical disk drives but SUSE only recognises the newer one which is an NEC DVD/RW drive. The other one is older and both were recognised when I had Windows 7 on this computer
View 3 Replies View RelatedThe final step to making 10.4.2 perfect for my use is to get it to recognize there is CDRW & DVDRW hardware on my computer. I have read the excellent articles on the topic and plugged-in all their recommended goodies but I must be missing something that's simple and obvious to everyone but me because when I try to play something in either drive the closest I can come is for the player (Movie Player, ie) to affirm that I have a floppy drive.
Can I use software leftover software that worked with Win XP (Nero, Power DVD) or do I need something specifically for this OS?
How do I configure my Debian installation to mount external USB drives to mount points based on the volume names of the drives? For instance, if I have a thumb drive with the volume name of "SWORDFISH," how do I have Linux mount it at /media/SWORDFISH? I'm aware that this can be setup in FSTAB, but that requires that I know the UUID of the device beforehand and that I take the time to set each external device up in FSTAB first. That does nothing for me when I have a thumb drive that has never been plugged into my computer before.
This seems to be setup by default in Ubuntu/Kubuntu, but is not working for me with a fresh installation of Debian Squeeze and KDE4. I've spent the past 2 hours Googling for a solution and have turned up nothing. UPDATE: My results are inconsistent. Sometimes Debian mounts devices to mount points based on the volume names, and other times it gives them generic mount points (e.g. /media/usb1).
I run a headless Ubuntu 8.04 server, which acts as a web, email and file server. I am sticking with 8.04 as it is a LTS release and will upgrade to the next LTS when it is released.
I have two external USB drives, that I need to mount at boot. I have been using /etc/fstab up until now, with the following entries:
Code:
However, as I gather from doing searches is quite common, occasionally I get an error during boot (causing the system to drop to a recovery shell) because the USB drives take time to wake up and the system hasn't found them by the time it reads /etc/fstab.
From doing searches, it seems there is nothing you can do to fstab to fix this, so you need to mount them using an rc.local script instead, using:
Code:
The problem is, as I have two USB drives, their /dev/sdxx location changes between boots. I thus want to use UUID codes as I do in fstab, however I haven't found anything about this.
Does anyone know how I can use the mount command and UUID to mount a drive in rc.local and what options I have to use the mount the drive with the same options that I am using in my fstab entry? Obvisouly, I can't refer back to fstab using the mount command, because then I will still get the boot error issue if they are listed in fstab. And there is no space internally for the USB drives as there is already two internal drives.
Not able to mount windows drive & foder, in linux. i have got following error.

I have servers installed with RHEL 4 2.6.9-89.0.9 ELsmp. I tried using uuid and label in /etc/fstab to automount usb drives to mountpoints that I specify after reboot. Unfortunately, it just does not work in all my RHEL4 servers. After every reboot, /etc/fstab will be automatically modified and all configurations related to my USB drives will be changed. Irregardless of whether i use UUID or LABEL in my /etc/fstab.However, it works on RHEL5. But, upgrading is not an option in my environment. I have been googling around looking for alternatives but everything seems to point back to using UUID or LABEL in /etc/fstab. Anyone has tried something that works? Please help me, thank you.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have 2 internal drives. One is for the OS and one is for the Data. I tried to get the Data drive to mount automatically at login using some crap I found on a linux blog. Safe to say it didn't work and now I can't mount it with the OS on the OS Drive.
It mounts from a live CD and all the data is perfectly safe. When I try to mount the drive I get this error message: "Error mounting: mount exited with exit code 1: helper failed with: mount: only root can mount /dev/sdb1 on /media/data" What have I done wrong and how can I make it mount again? Preferably this time at login.
I have been trying to share folders from my main PC which is running Ubuntu 10.04. I have been able to figure out Samba enough to get my a couple of folders shared, but I have been unable to share any folders which are on my external harddrive. After entering the path in my smb.conf file they appear on the network but I am unable to navigate to them. When trying to navigate to them through the network folder on the pc they are actually connected to I get an "Unable to mount location: Failed to mount windows share" dialog box. On the windows pc I am trying to share with I get, "Windows cannot acces \Josh-Desktop
ame of folder"
My smb.conf file looks like this:
That folders I cannot access are Music and Videos.
Its annoying to unmount my flash drive twice.. its not a major problem actually but its kinda annoying , its whenever i plug-in my flash drive.. everything works well except when i need to un-mount it.. I usually unmount it twice using right-click of the mouse, then it mounts itself back, so i have to unmount it again.. Is there any way to control this? How do i setup the auto-mount option for USB flash drives?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI was trying to figure out how to get my network drive to mount as a local drive on my computer. This was back on 9.10. Since I've upgraded to 10.04, my boot process halts and tells me (paraphrasing) /shared is not ready to mount. To continue, pres S to skip or M to manually mount the drive.
Well, I have it mounting now through GVFS and I don't need this in my startup anymore. Frankly, it's just annoying that it won't boot into Ubuntu right away. So, what's the startup file I need to edit to remove the attempt to mount the network drive?
no entries exist in the /dev folder for hdc,cdrom,dvd, or any other drive or drive type than hda. The only other similar device is sg0 which doesn't work either. I have tried every variation of mount I can find with every available drive and drive type and nothing works, but this is the drive I installed FC14 with, and it installed perfectly (except for forgetting where it came from!!)Do I have to install a module or recompile the kernel just to get linux to recognize the drive it came from?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have just installed Xubuntu and suprisingly it did not ask me to create a partition within its installer like Ubuntu does. So now, I am left with 150mb of free space. I want to expand that amount. The problem is, I do not know where it has been installed on. I have a C and an E drive. Currently, the C drive is mounted and the E drive will not mount even if i press the mount button. Does anyone have a solution?

I want to make it now so that my drive will mount either at startup or a Keyboard shortcut.
Problem I run into is I need to logged in as root or have sudo access.
I got a feeling that it won't be that hard, maybe.
Pretty much I wanna run
sudo mount 192.168.1.102:/media/Xternal
Without putting in a password.

I'm not sure what else to try. My other USB drives don't have this problem, in fact, this one has worked fine so far.
I have about 2gb of photos stored on it, so I can't wipe it.

I just reinstalled Ubuntu 10.04 because of problems with windows. I can see both my drives with gparted, but I cannot mount the d drive, I put the Ubuntu install next to windows on the c drive but last time I installed 10.04 I could see my d drive, that is where all my music and .avi files are located. I get an error when trying to mount this drive:
[Code]...
Just found out that after the 10.04 install, my d drive was wiped out, any way of getting those files back? I haven't formatted yet with windows. Windows needs to format it and Ubuntu can't mount it, it is nowhere land.
"Old" disk was the primary - and only - drive. 500 GB.
I have to move that drive to a new machine off-site, so I'd like to get the 10 or so GB of data from it and put the data on a "new" drive - 80 GB, with an existing maverick installation.
I tried to use Acronis to create an image. That way, the new drive would be a clone of the old drive, other than being much smaller. Acronis wouldn't allow it because of the size difference.
When booting to the "new" sda everything works ... except that maverick "sees" sdb, but won't let me access the data partition sdb2.disk utility "sees" sdb and describes it as having boot partition sdb1, and the other 499 GB , sdb2 (and sdb5) nautilus and dolphin both "see" sda and can access all of the data (such as it is, given that it's a new installation) nautilus and dolphin both "see" sdb, but only access the 255 MB boot partition sdb1 I tried doing a clean install on the "new" drive. In that install I left the old drive in place as a second drive - hoping that the installation would recognize it as a second drive and mount it properly.
However:
1) it didn't do anything with the old drive and
2) the results are the same - no access to the data partition on the "old" drive.
I think the problem is that I need to mount sdb2, but I can't figure out how. Here is the information from fdisk:
Do I enter information in fstab to enable mounting? If so, which information do I use?
Or is there another way to access the 10 GB of data on sdb and get it on to sda?
By the way, in the course of messing with this, I managed to make the "old" drive unbootable, so I can't just reverse the drives' roles. The "old" drive has the boot partition marked as bootable, and I switch drive jumpers (and cable setup)
I just recently took apart my Zune 120G because it, well, crashed and burned. I suppose it was going to happen eventually. anyway, I ordered a ZIF->USB hard drive case, got it in today, and when I plug it in, I can't figure out how to mount it.

This is not a particular Fedora issue, but I take the chance
How can I mount a network (nfs) drive (on a RHEL4 machine) from my FC11, but as another user.
E.g. I would like to mount the folder /home/userA on the network drive. But my local username is userB. Hence I don't seem to have access to mount the drive.
sudo mount -t nfs eda4:/home/userA /mnt/eda4 gives the message: "mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting (null)"
I have put a broadcast address in /etc/exports and started an nfs daemon on the remote server.
I'm new to Fedora. Is there an instruction manual. I'm using Fedora 14. I found under documentation a manual for musicians and amateur radio enthusiasts, but not for regular users. I'm using a black widow, which is a holder for hard drives that connects thru USB. I'm trying to mount it. The file system is Ext4.
