Hi all,
I have searched for a solution to this but am coming up empty.
I can play audio CDs and video DVDs just fine using xmms and gxine/mplayer.
However, I cannot seem to mount data CDs/DVDs. I can however use k3b to
write to both of these doing a data burn. k3b will recognize that there
is existing data and prompt me before proceeding with a burn. It will
also properly complete the integrity verification post burn.
I just cannot mount the data CDs/DVDs regularly. I can however read the
same ones properly on another computer running Windows.
My current /etc/fstab has the following entry for /dev/hda, which is the
CD/DVD+RW Drive (NEC ND-5100A):
/dev/hda /media/cdrecorder auto
pamconsole,exec,noauto,fscontext=system_u:object_r:removable_t,managed 0 0
There will be line wrapping in the above.
There is the /media/cdrecorder mount point created. There are also
symlinks to /dev/hda from /dev/cdrom, /dev/cdwriter and /dev/dvd.
When I try to manually mount the drive I get:
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda,
or too many mounted file systems
Mount failed
It does not matter whether I try to mount as a regular user or as root.
I have seen these same errors post here and elsewhere, suggesting that
the media is bad. However, as I mentioned, I can read the same media in
Windows without problem.
I am running the 770 kernel.
Anyone have any ideas here?
Thanks,
Marc
