TEENpup live-cd how do I read pix on separate cd


1st time user TEENpup. Loaded live-cd to desktop no problem. Put cd with pix in 2nd cd drive. How do I get pix cd read? During bootup given /dev/cdrom and /dev/dvd as hints. No info in pup wiki page. Thx.

hmmm. haven't used teenpup.. but do you know if teenpup even knows your second drive exists? You can check for existing drives drives with
ls -a /dev/hd*
ls -a /dev/sd*
and the hd* devices will probably be hard drives or anything that's using a pata, not sata connection.
and results for /dev/sd* are for sata connections. You'll have to know or guess which type your cd is.
if some promising devices show up, you can try using:
sudo mount -t autofs /dev/hda2 /media/cd2
where hda2 is a promising result from one of the commands, autofs *should* automatically mount the drive with the correct filesystem (or you can specify the type, I think a couple examples are cdrfs, iso9960, udfs), oh yeah, and /media/cd2 is the place where you'll mount the cd. You may have to create the /media/cd2 place, if it gives you an error.
to create the directory: sudo mkdir /media/cd2

Hope that helps. I guess I'm assuming that it doesn't recognize your cd or dvd as such. which makes me wonder if this will work. Good luck!
