can't mount /media/cdrom0

lleb · 01-29-2007, 12:27 PM

i burned a data DVD in windows (still trying to figure out a way to back up my bloody DVD for my wife) and the data is there, but under linux i can not mount it.

Code:

cdrom: This disc doesn't have any tracks I recognize!
attempt to access beyond end of device
hda: rw=0, want=68, limit=4
isofs_fill_super: bread failed, dev=hda, iso_blknum=16, block=16
attempt to access beyond end of device
hda: rw=0, want=68, limit=4
isofs_fill_super: bread failed, dev=hda, iso_blknum=16, block=16
attempt to access beyond end of device
hda: rw=0, want=68, limit=4
isofs_fill_super: bread failed, dev=hda, iso_blknum=16, block=16
cdrom: This disc doesn't have any tracks I recognize!
attempt to access beyond end of device
hda: rw=0, want=68, limit=4
isofs_fill_super: bread failed, dev=hda, iso_blknum=16, block=16

does not matter if i try to mount it as user or with sudo. still same error in dmesg:

Code:

cat /etc/fstab
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point>   <type>  <options>       <dump>  <pass>

/dev/fd0        /media/floppy0  auto    rw,user,noauto  0       0

is there something elese my fstab should be listing for my DVD burner?

Does it reads under winblows?

yup, no problem there.

the reason i burned the raw data out to the DVDs was in hopes of putting them on my Linux HDD so i could mkisofs (or what ever the exact command is, was going to google for that next) so i could hope to burn the ISO out to a dual layer DVD in hopes of it working on the set top.

there is no way to create an ISO image in windows from files that i know of.

any clues?

Heeey...stop. So you just want to move this iso to DL DVD? You don't need to access individual files then (if it's DL DVD+-RW). Linux kernel threats it as a rewritable medium with random access so you can (first) copy entire DVD data to HD and (second) copy it back to DL DVD+-RW. The first may be done with 'dd if=/dev/your-dvd-drive of=some-temporary-file,say,-/tmp/dvd0'. If there are read errors (in the middle of DVD, not in the end), add 'conv=noerror' to the command. For second do the same, just reverse if= and of= filenames.

Btw, I'm sure there is a mkisofs 4 winblows on the Internet. Cause it's OS-independent

only with cgwyn or what ever that program is called.

still does not resolve my issue with being unable to mount a standard data DVD created in nero:

Code:

sudo mount /media/cdrom0

WTF is this junk? it is NOT a CD, it is a DVD, and yes if i put in a movie DVD it plays and even auto mounts with zero problems.

the answer was to change from udf,iso9660 to auto in my fstab. all fixed now.
