I just performed a 2.1R install, then recompiled the kernel for atapi cdrom support. However I still can't seem to mount the ide atapi cdrom. Can anyone point out what I'm doing wrong? Some things I noticed were that: (1) the installation didn't create /dev/wcd0c automatically. I had to run /dev/MAKEDEV all to create it. /dev/wcd0c is the correct device file for the atapi cdrom isn't it? (2) When I try /sbin/mount -t iso9660 /dev/wcd0c /cdrom or /sbin/mount -t cd9660 /wcd0c /cdrom I get an error message about /usr/sbin/mount_cd9660 on /cdrom -- well, when I look, the mount_cd9660 is in /sbin, not /usr/sbin. So, finally, I run /sbin/mount_cd9660 /dev/wcd0c /cdrom, and I get an error message "Device not configured." I did the MAKEDEV for /dev/wcd0c. I did create the /cdrom directory, and no one is "in" it when I try the mount. The FreeBSD install disk 1 is in the cdrom drive when I try to mount it. I don't know what to try next. Any hints? --dherbst@gradient.cis.upenn.edu
