Unable to mount CD correctly with rockridge options

[Toriq]

My system is a HPUX11.11 with Rock Ridge Patches installed(PHCO_25841,PHKL_26269,PHKL_32035)

swlist output confirmed that it is installed and in configured state.

however whenever i tried to mount a cd, all filenames still appears in uppercase and i get the following line in syslog.

vmunix: Sorry, RRIP 1.12 not supported

the exact command used to mount the cd is:
mount -F cdfs -o rr /dev/dsk/c1t2d0 /SD_CDROM


Thanks,

[Steven E. Protter]

Shalom,

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

Thats mine.

Revision for you.

/usr/sbin/mount -F cdfs -e -o ro,rr /dev/dsk/c1t2d0 /SD_CDROM

Might want to create a /cdrom mountpoint for this. Not a requirement.

SEP
Safe!
Really!

steven,

nope, it still doesn't work. Same uppercase filenames and the same line in syslog. Could it be something to do with Rock Ridge format/version itself (RRIP 1.12)?

the cd was created on Mac OSX 10.4. Will try with other CDs to confirm this.

thanks anyway

I have experienced the same exact problem when mounting a Windows or MAC based CD on a Unix server - uppercase filenames!

The following solution works for me:

---------------------------------
TO MOUNT A ROCKRIDGE FORMATTED CD:
---------------------------------
mv /etc/pfs_fstab /etc/pfs_fstab.save
(No need to do this 'mv' if file does not exist)

echo "/dev/rdsk/c0t2d0 /cdrom pfs-iso9660 xlat=unix 1 0" > /etc/pfs_fstab

(If the "pfs-iso9660" does not work - meaning you don't get lowercase filenames - then try this again using "pfs-rrip")

chown root:sys /etc/pfs_fstab
chmod 644 /etc/pfs_fstab

nohup /usr/sbin/pfs_mountd &
sleep 2
nohup /usr/sbin/pfsd &
sleep 2
echo
echo "PFS Mounting /cdrom using pfs, please wait ..."
/usr/sbin/pfs_mount /cdrom

Now, "cd /cdrom" and see if the filenames are as you want - not all uppercase.


----------------------------------
TO UMOUNT A ROCKRIDGE FORMATTED CD:
----------------------------------
/usr/sbin/pfs_umount /cdrom
sleep 3

echo "Now killing pfs daemons ..."
PIDS=`ps -ef | grep pfs | grep -v grep | awk '{print $2}'`
for PID in `echo $PIDS`
do
if [ "x$PID" = "x$$" ]; then
continue
fi

PS=`ps -p $PID | tail -1`
echo "kill -9 $PID # [$PS]"
kill -9 $PID
done

if [ -s /etc/pfs_mtab ]; then
> /etc/pfs_mtab
fi

You may get a few funky error messages when umounting the PFS mounted CD but they are harmless. The end result is a properly mounted CD and umounted CD.

Sorry, I forgot to mention that the "/dev/rdsk/c0t2d0" is the device filename for the CD-ROM (do ioscan to determine what is is on your system) and you have to do a "mkdir /cdrom" before sometime before nohup'ing (starting) the PFS daemons.

The following seems to work fine for me:

# mount -F cdfs -o cdcase /dev/dsk/c3t2d0 /cdrom

[Toriq]

re-burn the data into lower compatibility mode. With that, the mount -o rr works fine
