[cw-discuss] How to get the cdrom tow rok with CX 6 under Fc6?

[Olaf Frączyk]

Hi,

I reported it on the beta list but I see that many reports are awaiting
reading.

You need to create directory /mnt/cdrom
Then you need to put in /etc/fstab something like:
/dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom iso9660 unhide 0 0

After this modification the CX 6 finds CDROM and installs applications
fine.

One more thing: if you want to create link to device not to the
directory you should use h:: instead of h:.

BTW. The idea of mounting in directory with cd's volume name is "not
wise" in my opinion.

Regards,

Olaf
