You have to create a directory and then mount the device to it.

Hi

at www.docs.hp.com is all the documentation

find via search

Chapter

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This chapter gives procedures and guidelines for configuring hard and floppy disk drives and disk arrays to SCSI interfaces. Procedures and guidelines are also provided for configuring CD-ROM drives to SCSI interfaces.

Hi,

First find out the device files for CD and floppy:

# ioscan -fn

Then for mounting CD:

# mkdir /cdrom
# mount /dev/dsk/cxtydz /cdrom ( /dev/dsk/cxtydz is the device file name)

For mounting floppy, check this out:
