Hey, newb BSDer here with a question I've got a brand new 5.4 install. I'm trying to mount the CDROM. As root, I type: mount /dev/acd0 /cdrom and I get "incorrect super block" error message after a bit of CD activity, and no mount. I've tried a CD-RW I burned (the FreeBSD install disk I installed from) and an old copy of SimCity 2000, neither worked, same error message. I'm stuck. Any ideas? _________________________________________________________________ Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!

You're trying to mount it as a rw disc and as a UFS file system mount -r -t cd9660 /dev/acd0 /cdrom Mark Space wrote:> Hey, newb BSDer here with a question > > I've got a brand new 5.4 install.

Any ideas?The drive could have just started to fail. Sounds unlikely, but it's the kind of error you might see. Does it work with another OS, or can you substitute another drive and try that way? joel
