sbpcd CDROM Problem! Need Help!
Hi everyone,
Ok, here is my problem. I just install "slink" yesterday using the
floppies method because I can't boot from my Matsushita/Panasonic CR-563
CDROM. So I install the base system using the floppy set and everything
went great. I got the base system installed, YES!!!! Anyway, the problem
lies when I try to mount my CDROM and here is what I did:
First, I added a line in my /etc/fstab file. The line is
/dev/sbpcd /cdrom iso9660 noauto,ro,user
and then I try to mount it like this
mount /cdrom
but it gives a this message
special device /dev/sbpcd is not found (something like this)
I don't know what's wrong, so I modify my /etc/fstab file again
using this line this time
/dev/sbpcd0 /cdrom iso9660 noauto,ro,user
but it still gives me the same message.
I couldn't figure out what's wrong so I uses "modconf" to remove the sbpcd
driver that I've install and then reinstall it, and still it doesn't work.
It gives me the same message when I try to mount it.
I think you guys should know these information;
When I install the module, it gives me this message
sbpcd-0 [11]:Drive 0(ID=0); CR-563 (0.81) at 0x340 (type 0)
....
and then it tells me to do something with the sbpcd.h file...It
also tell me to look up linus/documentation/cdrom/sbpcd to information
but I couldn't find that directory on my base system so can anyone
tell my where i can read it on-line??
When I look the /dev directory, I see cdrom as a link to sbpcd and
I also see a bpcd(don't what this is ).
That's all folks. If anyone can help, please do. I appreciate it.
Thanks everyone.
