mounting CDROM in HP-UX

[senthil_kumar_1]

Hi

I want to mount the cdrom in HP-UX.

Device files for CDROM:

/dev/dsk/c0t1d0
/dev/rdsk/c0t1d0

[Torsten. · Accepted solution]

Try

# mount -F cdfs -o rr /dev/dsk/c0t1d0 /

[T G Manikandan]

mount -F cdfs /dev/dsk/c0t1d0 /cdrom

[Bijeesh]

hi

#mkdir /cdrom
#mount -F cdfs /dev/dsk/c0t1d0 /cdrom

[senthil_kumar_1]

In my HP-UX i found that a cdrom (/dev/dsk/c0t1d0) is connected.

How to find that the cdrom is connected in which mount point?

Hi Senthil Kumar,

step1:- "You need create directory under "/"

#mkdir /cdrom

step2 :- "Mount cdrom"

mount -F cdfs /dev/dsk/c0t1d0 /cdrom -->

Hope this helps,

Thanks,
Johnson

if the CDROM is already mounted it should display when you do a

#mount
or cat /etc/mnttab

[Sajjad Sahir]

first make a directory

mkdir cdrom

second see where is cdrom in disk

by using ioscan -funC disk

once u found that one

mount /dev/dsk/c1t1d0 /cdrom

then go to cdrom( cd cdrom)

then use swinstall -s cdrom for install

thanks and regards
