Mount erorr

nitingaur1983 — Tue, 06 Jan 2009 08:34:42 GMT

I am new for unix environment. I am having problem with mounting cdrom.
steps tried:
1) mkdir /cdrom
2) mount /cdrom
after mount I am getting error as below
---- mount: /dev/dsk/c1t2d0: No such file or directory..

I have made sure that the /etc/fstab file contains an entry for the drive.

please suggest me something. I am totally new for HP-UX environment.

What does it look like? Does it have /dev/dsk/c1t2d0?

Does it actually mount the cd?

# df

You might try:

# sam

or

# ioscan -funC disk

to verify your cdrom path. Does it match the fstab info?

HTH,

Send the output of

ioscan -fnC disk

put the cd inside the drive, then mount the cd drive.

Thanks

/etc/fstab contains entry like this:

/dev/dsk/c1t2d0 /cdrom cdfs ro,suid 0 0

output of ioscan -funC disk :

Your cdrom is /dev/dsk/c0t0d0

try mounting this device. Change /etc/fstab accordingly.

How did you find out that "/dev/dsk/c1t2d0" is your cdrom ?

Infact, you don't seem to have any device in that path right now.

Hi Nitingaur,

as per you ioscan -fnC disk --> output your cdrom/DVD is point to device file /dev/dsk/c0t0d0

Please follow the below command should work.

mount -F cdfs /dev/dsk/c0t0d0 /cdrom

Thanks,
Johnson

Hi Nitingaur,

Edit the /etc/fstab and remove the the entry,

/dev/dsk/c1t2d0 /cdrom cdfs ro,suid 0 0

To mount the cd you just need to give this command.

#mount -F cdfs /dev/dsk/c0t0d0 /cdrom

>Asif: Edit the /etc/fstab and remove the the entry

Instead of removing the entry, fix it. Then you don't need to mention the device when you mount it.
#mount /cdrom
