I installed RH 8.0, I tried to mount the cdrom and floppy disk drive but it failed.

I checked the /etc/fstab file, it looks alright.

When I right click on the desktop and select the Disk from the menu, it prompts an error message saying " Nautilus unable to mount..bla bla..wrong FS type or something"

Any thoughts?

Thanks.

Hi

First; post your fstab here
Second; for testing, you don't need it anyway

insert a cdrom
open a console
type; mount to see what is actually mounted
su to root
type; umount /mnt/cdrom or the mount point u use for cdrom
(just to be sure, or to unmount any
incorrectly mounted data, if it says not mounted that is ok too)
type; mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
cd /mnt/cdrom
ls
and see what shows up
post errors

for floppy it's almost the same,

mount -t vfat /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy
if there is a dos formatted floppy in your drive

good luck
