Often I need to re-try mounting before I succeed.
With 3 PCs and multiple versions of Linux and 2 CD-roms, moving
between PCs it's already confusing, without the apparent random
failure to mount.
Here's the latest trace:-
# mount /dev/hdd /mnt/cdrom ==
mount: block device /dev/hdd is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: No medium found
-------------
A good readable CD was present.
This PC/CDrom combination worked last week.
Now it 'retracts the tray' for: `mount /dev/hdd /mnt/cdrom`,
which shows 'something'. But even for the previous CD which it was
reading last week, it won't mount.
And the other strange fact is that both:
eject /mnt/cdrom
and
eject /dev/hdd
work, so that somehow '/dev/hdd' IS associated with
'/mnt/cdrom' ?!?
==TIA.
