Gentlemen:
Version: 4.1 CDROM
Hardwar: IBM PPro 200MHz 64MB Ram
Symptomes: Though I am able to mount a CD,
when I attempt to dd from the
CD, /dev/cd0a, I get the error
msg, "invalid device". This is
with 4.1.
With 2.2.8, on another node, and
with this node until I installed
4.1, dd would, indeed, dump from
the device to the "of=" file.
!! Most noticable, EVERY device in
/dev is a character device! Is
this correct?
Additionally: The reason that I am sure about
dd's past behavior is that it is
invoked in a script that I use,
often, in burning CD's.
