Troubling mounting and installing ParrotOS
Hello everyone,
I recently downloaded ParrotOS and made a live usb from within MXLinux. I am able to boot with it as Live media, but when i try to install, it gives an error of CD-Rom not found. I found a solution to mount USB as CDROM from shell, during installation, but i am not able to mount it. USB is /dev/sdb and i am trying to mount it as follows Code:
mount /dev/sdb1 /cdrom Code:
mount /dev/sdb2 /cdrom From within linux, sdb1 can be mounted and used. What am i doing wrong?? |
"this gives an error" what error was that?
|
mounting on /cdrom failed: Invalid argument
|
probably it is already in use, try another mount point (/cdrom1)
|
if it was, then i wouldnt have been able to mount sdb2 on it
|
in that case /dev/sdb1 is not mountable. Either it contains no usable filesystem or corrupted.
You can also use mount -v, probably give more info and check the return code too (see man page). You may check /var/log too. Try gparted or any partition tool to check it. |
