/dev/dsk/c0t1d0 is your cdrom

with mount -a, you try to mount all the filesystems defined in /etc/fstab.

2 possiblities
a) no cdrom in the drive
b) cdrom defective

Remove /dev/dsk/c0t1d0 from /etc/fstab to avoid this problems.

Don't forget to submit points.

Is the drive defective or was there no media in the cd drive?

1) If the drive is defective => ask HP to replace is
2) Put a media in the drive and mount it manually with
mount /dev/dsk/c0t1d0 /cdrom

hi

mount -a isnt the normal way to mount a cdrom

if you want it mounted at start up or by this way you need to have put a cdrom in the drive first. no cdrom = no mount?

mount it manually as luk has stated.

if that fails and you cannot mount it you will get a different error like device busy, in which case likely faulty cdrom drive or bad cdrom disk

If you have the CD-ROM in fstab, you will often see messages like this.

You may consider to use the automounter or write a small script for mount/umount the drive and configure sudo to enable users of your choice to mount this drive.

CDROM media is not corrupted.

After removing CDROM line from /etc/fstab I am unable to mount the CDROM.

# mount /cdrom
mount: /cdrom was either ignored or not found in /etc/fstab

# cat /etc/fstab
/dev/vg00/lvol3 / vxfs delaylog 0 1
/dev/vg00/lvol1 /stand hfs defaults 0 1
/dev/vg00/lvol4 /tmp vxfs delaylog 0 2
/dev/vg00/lvol5 /home vxfs delaylog 0 2
/dev/vg00/lvol6 /opt vxfs delaylog 0 2
/dev/vg00/lvol7 /usr vxfs delaylog 0 2
/dev/vg00/lvol8 /var vxfs delaylog 0 2
/dev/vg01/lvol9 /var/opt/omni vxfs rw,suid,nolargefiles,delaylog,datainlog 0 2
#

Any idea How I can fix the CDROM Again. Thanks

Torsten. — Fri, 09 Nov 2007 03:23:14 GMT

# mount /cdrom

only works if the entry is in fstab ;-)

otherwise use

# mount /dev/dsk/c0t1d0 /cdrom

I checked the Media and it is corrupted.
I tried loading different CD, and it works fine now.
Thank you for all your support.
Have a nice day
