I'm not stupid, I suppose...
But I don't understand the following.
I mainly use SuSE 8.1, with 1. a dvd-rom and 2. a cd/rw -rom drive
hdc: ATAPI 48X DVD-ROM drive, 512kB Cache
hdd: ATAPI 32X CD-ROM CD-R/RW drive, 2048kB Cache
My /etc/fstab file looks like this:
/dev/hda3 / reiserfs defaults 1 1
/dev/hda1 /boot ext2 defaults 1 2
/dev/hda2 swap swap pri=42 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts mode=0620,gid=5 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
usbdevfs /proc/bus/usb usbdevfs noauto 0 0
/dev/cdrom /media/cdrom auto ro,noauto,user,exec 0 0
/dev/dvd /media/dvd auto ro,noauto,user,exec 0 0
/dev/fd0 /media/floppy auto noauto,user,sync 0 0
/dev/cdrom1 /media/cdrom1 auto ro,noauto,user,exec 0 0
/dev/cdrom2 /media/cdrom2 auto ro,noauto,user,exec 0 0
When I want to play an audio cd, I configure the player (KsCD) with /dev/hdc or /dec/hdd as drive. This works without any problem. Also cd-roms and dvd's are mounted just as it had to be done, I suppose because it works..
But I can't find /dev/hdd and /dev/hdc in fstab, why??
When I use Konqueror to browse the directory /dev, I get to see the links of the devices, this I really don't understand:
/dev/cdrom1 and /dev/cdrom2 are linked to hdd, but
/dev/dvd doesn't have a link and
/dev/cdrom isn't even there!!!
By the way, but that's a question for after this tread, my writer cannot be found bij writing programs...
Can someone please explain me what is goning on here? I you can, can you please tell me what to do, to have this as it should be? I'd rather not re-install SuSE AGAIN...
thanks!
