Hi again, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
In fact, just like Ricardo said, my congrats to a person who wants to |
| 4 |
learn Linux starting by Gentoo :-) |
| 5 |
But, back to the problem: |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
Then, I insist at the point: As root, try to mount it manually and |
| 8 |
paste the output here: |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
# mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
Certify that /mnt/cdrom exists. :-) |
