From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 4.01; Windows NT) Description of problem: mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdd /mnt/cdrom does not mount "no valid block device" CDROM(s) used: Roswell iso1 and iso2 from which I installed. Though cdrom *is* hdd, I also tried hda, hdb, hdc without success. When I reboot, the installation program starts from cdrom, though. Strange .... ! Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdd /mnt/cdrom 2. 3. Actual Results: "no valid block device" Expected Results: cdrom is mounted Additional info:
The directories /mnt/floppy and /mnt/cdrom did not exist after clean install *or* upgrade over Seawolf. Needed to create both directories before CD or floppy would work again.
[root@leonberg root]# rpm -qf /mnt/cdrom filesystem-2.1.6-2 [root@leonberg root]# rpm -qf /mnt/floppy filesystem-2.1.6-2 They are in the filesystem package... Looks like you used a bad image?
