O.K. it goes like this: #mount -t cd9660 /dev/wcd0c /mnt cd9660: /dev/wcd0c : Input/output error note, this is the device assigned at boot up. and... yes, I don't mount audio cd's :-) but I would appreciate you telling me if I did anything else stupid. Could it be timing out??? -H On Tue, 10 Mar 1998, Doug White wrote: > On Mon, 9 Mar 1998, Hugh wrote: > > > I have this Dell Dimensions XPS 233 at work. > > > > I'd like to install off the CDROM (ATAPI IDE) and though it seems > > to recognize it at boot-up, I can't seem to mount it. > > Can you be more specific?
