Norman, |

First understand one thing: The terminal is always a good friend :-) |
| 4 |
Second, let's explain the fstab: Fstab (filesystem table) is a table |
| 5 |
with all the specification for you filesystem. Check this out: |
| 6 |
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fstab. To check the content of fstab just |
| 7 |
type this on you terminal: |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
$ cat /etc/fstab |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
(and paste here the result of this command) |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
Third, to mount manually a device, you need to know first which device |
| 14 |
is what on your Linux. Usually, cdrom is some /dev/hdc thing. Then, to |
| 15 |
mount it: |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
$ mount /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
The strange things is: How did you installed gentoo without knowing |
| 20 |
this issues? :-) |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
Hope this 2 cents helps you. |
