Mount virtual media CD ROM under linux

roberto torresani — Mon, 15 Mar 2004 10:31:34 GMT

I have a BL20pG2 with linux installed.
When I try to mount the CDRom (mapped via virtual media), it doesn't work.
What are the kernel modules needed to use the virtual cd?

Thx in advance,
Roberto

Hi Roberto

I asked a similar question and was linked by 'Yong' to the iLO documentation which contained the answers: http://h18013.www1.hp.com/products/servers/management/ilo/documentation.html

The user reference guide explains that the virtual media uses the USB system, so you'll need to load the usbcore module, the usb-storage module, the usb-ohci module, the scsi_mod module and the sr_mod module

You should then be able mount the virtual cdrom under /dev/scd0
