Hey guys, as you all know im a newbie to CentOS.
I Used To Run RH And To Mount My CDROM (Same computer so it should get the drivers)
Now
I used to just need to run this command
First off to get the eject device we run
Code:
eject -n
then get
Code:
eject: device is '/dev/hdc'
Then We Run
Code:
[root@localhost mnt]# mount /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom
We were getting this error before when running that:
Code:
Error: no mount point found
So i created the directory now i get
Code:
mount: no medium found
Im not a computer god> ive used linux for a long time but never had this issue, then again ive never really used CentOS Till now,
So far i love centos this little issue is starting to ruin it though, any help would be great!
Yes im sure> because i do not have an internet connection on this server and have it on 3 computer test network that my computers with internet are not connected to, i download packages (In This Case Webmin And Bind) And Mount a Cd Of Them, I just cant get it to work
Cancel that > I get:
Mount: block device is /dev/hdc is write protected, mounting read-only Witch is good so i thought it mounted but then i get
mount: you must specify the file system type
Could it be because i burned it with the windows burning wizard?
