same problem for me
I'm getting the same problem. i've got a CD with a bunch of mp3's on it that I was going to listen to.
in a root shell i tried 'mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom and that didn't work. I did notice that /mnt/cdrom (and /mnt/floppy) is just a symlink to /mnt/auto/cdrom (and /mnt/auto/floppy) which does not actually exist, only /mnt/auto exists.
When i tried (still as root) to mkdir cdrom inside of /mnt/auto it told me "Permission denied".
This is happening to me with both the 2.4.26 and the 2.6.5 kernels. I used knoppix-installer to do the hdinstall, with the debian-style installation. I had originally had this working with the 'beginner-style" installation, but i thought that certain things were not how i would have liked them, so I tried the Debian-style installation instead.
Is this an fstab issue?
my /etc/fstab:
Code:
# /etc/fstab: filesystem table.
#
# filesystem mountpoint type options dump pass
/dev/hda4 / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/hda2 /boot auto defaults,auto 0 2
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/fd0 /floppy vfat defaults,user,noauto,showexec,umask=022 0 0
usbdevfs /proc/bus/usb usbdevfs defaults 0 0
sysfs /sys sysfs defaults 0 0
/dev/dvd /dvd iso9660 defaults,ro,user,noexec,noauto 0 0
/dev/cdaudio /cdaudio iso9660 defaults,ro,user,noexec,noauto 0 0
# Added by KNOPPIX
/dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1 ntfs noauto,users,exec,ro,umask=000 0 0
# Added by KNOPPIX
/dev/hda3 none swap defaults 0 0
anyway, I'm going to continue to beat my brains against this problem until i figure it out, or until i find a thread on a board somewhere that already has...
