So, there are two problems but the most serious one right now is that |
| 14 |
you don't have the /mnt/cdrom directory. Make it. That will solve the |
| 15 |
first problem. |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
The second is that you need to tell "mount" that the disk in your CD |
| 18 |
drive has an iso9660 filesystem on it so it doesn't get all confused. |
| 19 |
Use this command, then, to mount the disk: |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
mount -t iso9660 /dev/sr0 /mnt/cdrom |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Make sure you really do have a disk with stuff on it in the drive. |
