Just installed 10.2 laptop cd issues


I installed Slack 10.2 on this laptop recently and I've found some issues with the CD drive.
For starters, here's what my fstab looks like right now:
Quote:
/dev/hda2 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/hda3 / reiserfs defaults 1 1
/dev/hda1 /boot ext2 defaults 1 2
/dev/hda5 /usr reiserfs defaults 1 2
/dev/hda6 /var reiserfs defaults 1 2
/dev/hda7 /tmp reiserfs defaults 1 2
/dev/hda8 /home reiserfs defaults 1 2
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom auto auto,users,ro 0 0
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto,owner 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
When I mount /mnt/cdrom with a data CD, I have no problems. With a music CD however I get the message "mount: you must specify the filesystem type".
I've tried changing "auto" to "iso9660" and again I can mount data CDs with no problem, but with music CDs I get the message
"mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/cdrom,
missing codepage or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so".
Here's what dmesg | tail gives me:
Quote:
pci_hotplug: PCI Hot Plug PCI Core version: 0.5
shpchp: shpc_init : shpc_cap_offset == 0
shpchp: shpc_init : shpc_cap_offset == 0
shpchp: Standard Hot Plug PCI Controller Driver version: 0.4
pci_hotplug: PCI Hot Plug PCI Core version: 0.5
pciehp: PCI Express Hot Plug Controller Driver version: 0.5
hdc: command error: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hdc: command error: error=0x54
end_request: I/O error, dev 16:00 (hdc), sector 64
isofs_read_super: bread failed, dev=16:00, iso_blknum=16, block=32
What am I missing here?

You're missing the fact that audio CDs can't be mounted,
no matter which version of Slack or the Linux-kernel you're
using.


Cheers,

Don't feel bad, I actually forgot and made the same mistake yesterday.
