again.. i want to thank the following people Bhavesh Shah and Debbie for giving a clue to my question.. QUESTION: how do you mount a cdrom in solaris SUMMARY: Bhavesh Shah said: 1) just make sure automountd daemon is running - if not start it from /etc/init.d - /etc/init.d/autofs start then mount insert the cdrom and it will be automatically mounted. 2) mount -F hsfs /dev/dsk/cxtxdxs2 /mnt Debbie said: If you have vold running (via /etc/init.d/volmgt) it will mount automatically. To have it mount immediately, you can run "volcheck" (or "volcheck -v" for more information). Then to eject it, type "eject cdrom" at the prompt (the button on the device won't work). Also, if it's a CDW or CDRW, you need to turn off vold before trying to write (or even run "cdrecord --scanbus"). again ,,,thank you -- Brent Bailey _______________________________________________ sunmanagers mailing list sunmanagers@sunmanagers.org http://www.sunmanagers.org/mailman/listinfo/sunmanagersReceived on Wed May 19 17:36:26 2004
