In Kudzu, When it's asking for CD or Filesystem or Cancel, if CD is chosen kudzu doesn't seem to mount the CD - and then re-prompts for the RPM location.
No messages at all about either failing to mount the CD, or failing to install the RPM? Is /dev/cdrom linked to anything?
/dev/cdrom is linked to /dev/hdc and moutnable as /mnt/cdrom /dev/cdrom1 is linked to /dev/hdd and moutnable as /mnt/cdrom1 The only message recieved was "unable to read CD" or somesuch. I watched the cdrom drive light, and it wasn't accessed as all while kudzu was running. Hmm. There's some sort of kernel error about the CD Drive not being ready at bootup if the drive is empty. Could this be affecting Kudzu?
Possibly. Can you mount the CD outside of kudzu? Also, does it persist in beta3?
Yes, ythe CD mounts properly outside Kudzu, and bug 12931 prevented a test of Beta 3. I'll try with Beta 4 when I get a clean download...
This defect is considered MUST-FIX for Florence Gold release
I just tried this with the current kudzu, and it appears to work fine.
