    DVD + FDD can't Access.

    Heres's my FSTAB:

    # /etc/fstab: filesystem table.
    #
    # filesystem mountpoint type options dump pass
    /dev/hdg6 / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1
    /dev/hdg5 none swap sw 0 0
    proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
    /dev/fd0 /floppy vfat defaults,user,noauto,showexec,umask=022 0 0
    /dev/cdrom /cdrom iso9660 defaults,ro,user,noexec,noauto 0 0
    # partitions found by Knoppix
    /dev/hdg1 /mnt/hdg1 vfat noauto,users,exec,umask=000,uid=knoppix,gid=knoppi x 0 0
    #/dev/hdg1 /mnt/hda1 vfat auto,users,rw,exec,umount=0 0 0
    #/dev/hdg6 /mnt/hdg6 ext3 noauto,users,exec 0 0
    /dev/scd0 /cdrom auto ro,noauto,user,exec 0 0
    /dev/scd1 /cdrom auto ro,noauto,user,exec 0 0

    I can access the CD-ROM drive and hdg1 (Windows)
    and FDD.

    DVD - Wrong fs type, blah-blah ...
    This was similar to CD-ROM , I had an UDF Disk in it - put
    an regular CD-ROM Disk and it ran it.
    The DVD-ROM has an regular CD DISK in it - but I get the Wrong fs type, etc. Error.
    I tried /dev/scd0 and /dev/scd1 with no luck.

    I have chmod a+rw on ALL DVD /dev/scd0 etc. -
    No Luck.

    Thanks...

    UPDATE!

    I read another article and tried following...


    mount -t iso9660 /dev/scd1 /cdrom -o ro

    It mounted from an Terminal. How do I view files on DVD,
    and copy them.
    Also why doesn't the link on DeskTop mount DVD.
    I can't unmount DVD from DeskTop either, I presume I
    need to run some unmount command from terminal.
    I tried unmount - said command not found.

    Thanks ...

    Ok, I got it to unmount using umount /dev/svd1 .

    The DeskTop shows it still mounted with the little green arrow,
    but unmount was unavailable in properties.
    It was unmounted..

    I found out how to view files and copy them, after mounting from terminal with

    mount -t iso9660 /dev/scd1 /cdrom -o ro

    just click on DeskTop DVD-ROM Icon.

    Now if I could just get the DeskTop DVD-ROM Icon to connect to DVD-ROM Drive. I suspect it is an Root problem.

    Thanks ...
