1 Hello,
2
3 I have a Toshiba DVD-ROM SD-R2412 in my portable.
4 #lshw <reveals>:
5 *-cdrom
6 description: DVD reader
7 product: TOSHIBA DVD-ROM SD-R2412
8 vendor: Toshiba
9 physical id: 0
10 bus info: ide@1.0
11 logical name: /dev/hdc
12 version: 1015
13 serial: Z34A308331
14 capabilities: packet atapi cdrom
15 removable nonmagnetic dma lba iordy audio cd-r cd-rw dvd
16
17 K3b gives me this error message:
18 Could not mount device.
19 The reported error was:
20 mount: only root can mount /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 on /mnt/cdrom
21
22 /etc/fstab has this entry:
23 /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,ro 0 0
24
25 # ls -alg /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 <reveals>
26 lr-xr-xr-x 1 root 33 Dec 31 1969 /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 ->
27 ../ide/host0/bus1/target0/lun0/cd
28
29 /etc/group has this entry:
30 cdrom::19:root,james
31
32 Should I pass parameters to the device at boot
33 time via /etc/conf.d/hdparm file?
34
35 The cdrom works to play music and I can manually mount CDs with
36 # mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
37 to copy file off the cd.
38
39 So why the error message?
40 What did I miss?
41 Better Ideas on cdrom configuration are most welcome.
42 As I should be able to burn CDs with this device
43 and watch DVD movies?
