From: JakuB on 12 Mar 2010 05:32 Hi, I have succesfully burned Slackware 13.0 DVD and installed the system. In order to browse the contents of the disk I mount it as follows: # mount /dev/dvd0 /mnt/dvd -t cdfs # mount /mnt/dvd/sessions_1-1.iso /mnt/cdrom -t auto -o loop Is there a less sophisticated way of mounting, while # mount /dev/dvd /mnt/dvd -t auto mount: block device /dev/hdd is write-protected, mounting read-only mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdd, missing codepage or helper program, or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so Regards Jakub

Or, if using KDE, XFCE, HAL should automount the DVD.

Thank you, but no progress: # mount /dev/dvd /mnt/dvd -t iso9660 mount: block device /dev/hdd is write-protected, mounting read-only mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdd, missing codepage or helper program, or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so DVD was prepared by: # growisofs -Z /dev/dvd=/home/slackware-13.0-iso/slackware-13.0-install-dvd.iso Could it have an impact?

Doesn't mounting an iso require a loopback device? mount -t iso9660 /path/to/image /mnt/somewhere -o loop -- -Rinaldi- Smoking is one of the leading causes of statistics. -- Fletcher Knebel

The growisofs command /looks/ OK to me. But, then again, I rarely use the growisofs command, and something /might/ be out of whack. But... If you already had the DVD's iso image on your filesystem, why didn't you just mount -t iso9660 -o loop,ro \ /home/slackware-13.0-iso/slackware-13.0-install-dvd.iso /mnt/dvd instead? That would have cut out any potential issue with growisofs.
