I read the mac68k faq about this but that didn't help. The faq says the
following:
1. check to see if /dev/cd0? exists.
"I did this and found that I have cd0a - cd0c in there, but no cd0"
Is that OK? is the question mark a special characiter "cd0" in step
one?"
2. If it does not exist, as root, type:
cd /dev; sh MAKEDEV cd0
"I did this, but it still doesn't show this cd0 file in the /dev
directory" Why is that?
3. Then make sure the mount point exists.
mkdir /cdrom
"no problem here."
4. mount -t cd9660 -o ro /dev/cdoc /cdrom
" I get this message when I try this step: "mount_cd9660: : Invalid
argument" fredfl2: /dev # Dec 29 14:55:29 fredfl2 /netbsd: cd0(esp0:3:0):
no data found, requested size: 16 (decimal), data = 00 00 00 00 64 00 00
00 00"
Does any one know where the problem might? Is there a mistake in the
FAQ instructions?
Take care,
Guy
