Mount Usb Cd-rom Won't Mount [fixed], searched & read many posts Options

[Jon_J]

I have a full sized CD-ROM installed in a USB external enclosure.
TOSHIBA Model: CD-ROM XM-6202B Rev: 1110
Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 02
This is an older CD-ROM (32x)
I want to get this one working before I plunk down $149.95 for a Slim external USB DVD/CD-ROM drive.
It does work in Windows, I tried it.
C3100 with Cacko 1.23 Lite
Installed these:
isofs-modules-2.4.20_1.23-lite-1_arm.ipk
udf-modules-2.4.20_1.23-lite-1_arm.ipk
I have 4 USB modules installed also:
usb-network-modules-2.4.20_1.23--lite-1_arm.ipk
usb-serial-modules-2.4.20_1.23-lite-1_arm.ipk
usb-storage-modules-2.4.20_1.23--lite-1_arm.ipk
libusb_1.1.8_arm.ipk

I also have "cdrtools-2.01.tar.gz" but am not sure where to install this.

I have followed several instructions to get my CD-ROM drive to mount on my C3100, but it always fails.
I have tried a Data CD. (A CD that I made with directories full of programs and data)
I tried an mp3 only CD. (A CD with 89 mp3s in the root directory)
I decided to use a "pressed" CD from a known manufacturer.
I used Meanie's instructions and Da_Blitz's instructions.
Meanie's instructions:
# su
# mkdir -p /mnt/cdrom
# mount -o ro /dev/scd0 /mnt/cdrom

Da_Blitz's instructions:
# mount /dev/scd0 /mnt/cdrom

I also tried:
# mount /dev/scd0 /mnt/usbstorage

When I issue either command, (Meanie's or Da_Blitz's or /mnt/usbstorage)
I get this:
mount: /dev/scd0 is write protected, mounting read-only
(repeats 6 more times)
mount: /dev/scd0 on /mnt/cdrom failed: Invalid argument

I looked in my /dev folder and I DO have:
cdrom
scd0

I also have cdrom under /mnt
/mnt/cdrom

Below are several lines from dmesg.

Have you tried specifying the filesystem type:

CODE

mount -t iso9660 /dev/scd0 /mnt/cdrom

NB the "-o ro" is optional because for a CDROM it will default to readonly anyway.

[Jon_J]

I think I tried that once, I'll try again
mount -t iso9660 /dev/scd0 /mnt/cdrom

[Jon_J]

That worked!
I once rebooted and the file "cdrom" disappeared from /dev
I had to re-link it.
My CD appears in tree!explorer, but not in Qtopia's filemanager tab

Oh, by the way, Thank you desertrat!

Do I need to unmount/mount it if I change the CD?

[Jon_J]

The eject button doesn't operate now.
I'm going to umount it and change the CD
EDIT: it needed to be unmounted to use the eject button, going to try a mp3 CDRW..
Zplayer can "see" my CDRW with mp3s on it.
That worked, this is cool. Now I'm going to RadioShack and get a
Targus USB Slim External DVD-CD-ROM Drive

BTW, is there a way to make the CD-ROM show up in QTopia's filemanager tab? (I'm making a new post for this).
