This might sound simple... But since it will still work with the dvd you installed from but not others.... did you remember to umount (unmount) the dvd? -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG [mailto:owner-freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG] On Behalf Of Peter Vidler Sent: Monday, April 29, 2002 10:23 AM To: freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: odd dvd problem Hi, I recently decided to make the move from linux to freebsd. In order to do this I bought a copy of freebsd 4.5 on dvd from the supplier listed in the handbook. The installation was flawless except that I couldn't mount the second dvd (containing the complete ports collection). I tried: mount /cdrom mount -t cd9660 /dev/acd0a /cdrom mount -t cd9660 /dev/acd0c /cdrom and several other commands all returned: cd9660: /dev/acd0c: Invalid Argument (or similar). This same error happens for all dvd's (including the one I just installed from - which sysinstall can still access to add packages and distribution sets!). Ordinary CDROMs seem to work fine in the same drive with the same settings. Windows also managed to read both dvd's perfectly so it can't be a problem with the disc. Oh yeah, dmesg | fgrep acd0 gives this: acd0: DVD-ROM <DVS DVD-ROM DSR-520H 990120MP> at ata1-master using PIO4 Which looks okay to me? I thought maybe it could be a config problem but I haven't changed anything (literally just installed it and tried to mount the ports dvd). Any help would be greatly appreciated.
