Dear All I tried to mount an external cdrom on my CentOS 5 server but un-successful . I attached the device to my USB port and then the followings have been added to my /dev folder : "cdrom -> scd0 cdrom-sr0 -> scd0 cdrw -> scd0 cdrw-sr0 -> scd0 cdwriter -> scd0 cdwriter-sr0 -> scd0" To this end , I tried to mount it as the followings (but it didn't get through) :

Hello, I have a win2003 HVM guest running, however I cannot see a CDROM device from the windows machine. I have ''cdrom=/path_to_my_iso'' in the config file, and this worked fine for the initial OS install. Now there is no CD device that shows in the windows device manager. So, how do I get a CD device to show in win2003? I''m using xen 3.0.3 compiles from source.

I tried to use cdrom in domU linux pv (Linux Mint 11 based on Natty). With ''/mnt/vm/iso/test.iso,raw,xvdb,ro,cdrom'', Mint sees it as internal disk (not cdrom) and only administrators can mount it. I tried also ''/dev/scd0,raw,xvdb,ro,cdrom'' does the same thing. Is possible use cdrom on linux domU pv full working where also normal user can mount it without

Folks I'm new to ISOLINUX and I've compiled a new Linux distribution of my oppwn (based on LinuxFromScratch). Now I want ot create a bootable CD with it - I don't need swap or anything like that as the bootable CD will simply run a couple of scripts to copy files onto a machine's hard drive. What exactly do I need to put in my isolinux.cfg file? Do I *need* to have a initrd or

I''m using Xen 3.1.0 on Debian etch, kernel 2.6.18-4-xen-amd64. One of the guests runs Windows XP. I am trying to install an application (Autodesk Inventor) that spans two DVDs. The config file for the domain in question contains: disk = [ ''phy:/dev/volgrp0/halebopp,ioemu:hda,w'', '',hdc:cdrom,r'' ] I ran "xm block-list halebopp --long" and

I'm having trouble installing a program from the CDROM / DVD drive. I've checked to see that the mapping of the d: drive is correctly pointing to the right place - it is: ~/.wine/dosdevices$ ls -l total 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 cosmo cosmo 10 2009-10-04 18:46 c: -> ../drive_c lrwxrwxrwx 1 cosmo cosmo 13 2010-08-12 20:19 d: -> /media/cdrom0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 cosmo cosmo 8 2010-07-25 19:12 d::

I just got a Dell Dimension e521 (AMD 64 x2, nVidia MCP51 chipset) and so far it has been fine. Today I tried to burn some CD-R and DVD-R disks and have been able to do nothing but make coasters. The drive is a TSST TS-H653a (Samsung OEM) and does have the current firmware. Playing back data, audio, and video disks work just fine, but recording is a different matter. The drive shows up as

I am trying to use kickstart for automated builds from a DVD. Some of the machines have DVD's drives and some have CDRom drives only. With the CDRom only machines I would like to plug in an external DVD drive via USB and use this to kickstart. The DVD only machines work correctly with a isolinux.cfg as label test kernel vmlinuz append initrd=initrd.img ramdisk_size=8192

Hello everybody I would like to build a bootable CD from my running SuSE 7.3 Kernel 2.4.10. The goal is to have a prebuilt system on CD which would install everything from a compressed image on the same CD, some kind of an emergency or initial setup CD. So I startet with an directory called root_tree, placed the isolinux directory and the binaries there. I copied the initrd from the /boot

Hello, I''m currently trying to understand some problems I had in the past with mixing look-back with blktap(2) for HV and PV domains. I''m stuck reading the source code, so I''d like to get some help from the list. Interrupt me if I got something fundamentally wrong in my understanding so far: 1. With pure-HV the domU gets an emulated IDE (or whatever) disk. The

Hello, I just got WINE running under FreeBSD and I was wondering if anyone has had success getting CD burning programs to work. Specifically, I would like to use CloneCD. I can use cdrecord / burncd to make data cd's and backups and the like, but a disk-at-once program is best (IMO) for copying audio cd's. And, unfortunately, there aren't any dao programs that support EIDE drives

Hello together, I already sent the message below to xen-users a few days ago, but didn''t get an answer. So I hope that here on xen-devel is someone who has some ideas (or is using XEN on this specific system and can confirm this isn''t a problem within xen itself but with this specific BIOS or sth. similar :-) ). ---------- I''ve just setup a new gentoo-system to get

Hello all, I keep iso images of my most commonly used cdroms on the harddisk so I don't have to find them. Can I set up a cdrom drive in my wine config that points to the isos, and have wine think its a cdrom drive ? Thanks, Andy

So right now I have installed k3b on this notebook. I am using my Storix DVD/CDRW usb drive. I can read cds with it. Cannot burn CDs. First k3b suggests slowing down (from 8x to 4x). Then use TAO. Then it gave up. So I try cdrecord directly. -checkdrive finds some interesting things. Got to close the drive manually; cdrecord says it can't. then try a cdrecord -v dev=dev/scd0 sample.iso

I''m running Xen on RHEL5. I''ve got two problems with CD-ROMs. In my .hvm file, I''ve got the following line: disk = [ ''phy:/dev/VG_Guests/WinXP-001,ioemu:hda,w'', ''file:/opt/xen_stuff/winxp.iso,hdc:cdrom,w'', ''phy:/dev/scd0,hdd:cdrom,r'' ] The first CD-ROM, (the one linking to the file winxp.iso), appears to WinXP to
