Mounting CD problems

This is on hp-ux 11.23

I used the command:

mount -F cdfs -o rr /dev/dsk/c0t0d0 /SD_CDROM

but the files are in a messed up format when I do ll on the directory - why is this happening and what can I do about it?

root@phl1s415-B.11.23:/SD_CDROM# l
total 1664

Re: Mounting CD problems

Add the cdcase option:

-o rr
should be:
-o rr,cdcase

Man mount_cfds for details.
If it ain't broke, I can fix that.

Re: Mounting CD problems

Shalom,

You have not used the right mounting options.

usr/sbin/mount -F cdfs -e -o ro,rr /dev/dsk/c3t2d0 /cdrom


That works for oracle. Adjust the device and folder you mount for your system.

If you tell me what kind of software is on there I can provide more precise help.'

Hi,
