| I have an external USB cd recorder (a regular IDE drive stuck in a USB case). With slack 9 I could plug it in and just mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom and read it that way. Either /mnt/cdrom or /mnt/hdc would work. In slack 10.1 I can't mount the drive, but cdrecord sees it and I can write to it just fine. I'm confused as to what changed here, I can try to specify any file system type and nothing works. |

The device location should be /dev/sda because the USB drive will be registered as a SCSI device. You can do a dmesg | grep <cd model> to see where the kernel created the block device in /dev and mount as usual. Hope that helps, Gecko |

You should test these possibilities for device attribution: If your cdrecord -scanbus lists ATA or PATA: /dev/hdc /dev/hdd (BTW, what gives cdrdao scanbus ?) Else, these should be the ones: /dev/sr0 /dev/sg0 /dev/sda /dev/sdB .... Sorry if it looks a bit vague and wide but you didn't print any info about what you could see in /var/log/messages ans /var/log/syslog that was logged when you plugged the device ... |
