[gentoo-ppc-user] Messed up fstab and /dev

[gentoo-ppc-user] Messed up fstab and /dev

[Mark M. Hart]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 623 bytes --]

I don’t know what I did, but I messed up fstab and /dev/cdrom.  Fstab used
to have an entry /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom auto noauto,user 0 0.  It now reads
/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom auto noauto,user 0 0.  I can’t mount a cdrom
with it because there is no /dev/cdroms directory in /dev.  I can’t go back
to mounting /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom because I get the error:  mount:
/mnt/cdrom is not a block device.

 

All help greatly appreciated!

Have you tried using /dev/hdc (or similar)?

Best regards,
