Hello all, I'm experiencing a very weird problem. I'm trying to mount a perfectly good FC5/x86_64 DVD/ISO on my NEC DVD_RW ND-3520A and no matter what I do it doesn't work. The same DVD disc (and drive) worked just fine FC4. I first tried mount the DVD from KDE, got a bad FS error. Tried editing the fstab line and mounting from console, and got: "mount: block device /dev/hda is write-protected, mounting read-only mount: you must specify the filesystem type" fstab line: $ cat /etc/fstab | grep cdrecorder /dev/hda /media/cdrecorder auto pamconsole,exec,noauto,managed 0 0 I tried manually mounting the image by hand (as iso9660): $ mount /dev/hda /media/cdrecorder -t iso9660 -o ro ; dmesg -c mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda, missing codepage or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so attempt to access beyond end of device hda: rw=0, want=68, limit=4 isofs_fill_super: bread failed, dev=hda, iso_blknum=16, block=16 .. And as UDF (just in-case): $ mount /dev/hda /media/cdrecorder -t udf -o ro ; dmesg -c mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda, missing codepage or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so attempt to access beyond end of device hda: rw=0, want=68, limit=4 attempt to access beyond end of device hda: rw=0, want=1252, limit=4 attempt to access beyond end of device hda: rw=0, want=1028, limit=4 UDF-fs: No partition found (1) I tried two other DVDs and all failed, experiencing the same problem. When I try to mount a normal CD, everything works just fine. Any ideas? Gilboa
