mount issues

Hi I am mounting cdroom however it is throwing the following error in linux plks help

[root@localhost root]# mount /mtnt/cdom
mount: can't find /mtnt/cdom in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[root@localhost root]# mount /mnt/cdrom
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/cdrom,
or too many mounted file systems
(could this be the IDE device where you in fact use
ide-scsi so that sr0 or sda or so is needed?)

Hi
What OS are you using?

I redhat as 3 or 4 you need to give the foll command:

mount /media/cdrom

Re: mount issues

Do you know where is connected your cdrom drive?

Primary master: /dev/hda
Primary slave: /dev/hdb
Secondary master: /dev/hdc
Secondary slave: /dev/hdd

Try running the following commands:

mkdir -p /media/cdrom
mount /dev/hd /media/cdrom

Where depends of where is connected as described above. Ensure that you have a good "data" cd media in the cd-rom.

Re: mount issues

Please post your "cat /etc/fstab" and "ls -l /dev/cdrom" contents.
Also, what type of CD are you trying to mount?
