Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Greetings. Last frivolous question. Really. I promise. I have a NEC 4x IDE CDROM that I installed from, and it worked just fine and dandy until I shutdown for an extended vacation. When I brought it back up and tried to mount, I got this: "cd9660: /dev/wcd0c: Invalid argument" mount_cd9660 /dev/wcd0c /cdrom also produced the same effect. Every third or forth try, it quietly mounts (including a quick check of the disc). However, when I cd to it, the dir is completely blank. mount_cd9660 /dev/cd0a /cdrom told me that the device wasn't configured, and when I tried to MAKEDEV, it told me "bad unit for disc in: cd0a" Any thoughts? Thanks once again, Ben bwern@jaxnet.com or bwern@unf.edu Try New and Improved Jello: V 2.0 "I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I intended to be."
