Mageia 3 can not mount DVD
 

I plug in the DVD, it shows

Error mounting system-managed device /dev/sr0: Command-line `mount "/media/cdrom"' exited with non-zero exit status 32: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sr0,
missing codepage or helper program, or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so

What can I do?

What does that mean? You plugged in an external DVD drive to a USB port? You put a DVD disk into an internal DVD drive? You tried to mount a DVD without any media in the drive?
You are using udev to automount? Or did you try and manually mount? Are you trying to mount a blank DVD+R?
Better help with better question.

it is a desktop,
internal DVD ROM,
I just put in a DVD,
it does not mount.

Hello,
It's not just a bad dvd? Have you tried another one?
cheers

i tried a few DVD, not DVD problem.

How have you tried to mount it? Can you mount it manually?
You may need to be root. Depends on how you have your box configured. You may need to give user permissions to mount, or configure udev.
Also your not trying to mount an MT DVD are you? Do you have the drive in your fstab?
I see that pinguy is built on Ubuntu. You may try their forum also.
Looks like you need to configure it.

If it's Magia, mount the disk manually or find out how to configure it to automount.

Noted your advice.

What I would do is just add the following line to your fstab file.
Note the "user" option allows any user to mount the drive.
Unless you have a hardware problem, this should work. If it doesn't let us know what happened.

the error message is this:

mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sr0,
missing codepage or helper program, or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so

What I did was this:

1. go to /mnt, su mkdir cdrom
2. the at terminal, type
mount -t iso9660 /dev/sr0 /mnt/cdrom

It was mounted, can be accessed from file manager.

How to make it automount?

why the usb drive is at

/run/media/daniel/TDK

my drive name is TDK.

/run/media is where the udisks daemon is probably set to mount.

add this line to /etc/fstab:
then check/or to easily mount later use:

Is this a bug in beta 1?
mageia 2 can automount.

probably is a bug
you need to report it

make sure you have

"autofs" package installed, and udf package for cd's is good too.

If that don't help, maybe it is a bug.
