[9fans] Unable to mount home cdroms

[Sam Ducksworth]

Hello,

For some stange reason I am unable to mount a cdrom that
I made. This CD was created with CDCreator on a windows
box it is in the Joliet format (I also did an ISO 9660 same
story ). The CD contains the plan9 dist files. I am able to 
install plan9 from the CD via the boot floppy install
process, but once the system is up i get i/o read error
message. I am able to mount a RedHat 6.1 cdrom and WinNT
4.0 CDRom but not mine. Windows and linux have no problems
mounting the disk. Maybe I have the mount command wrong?:
BTW i only have IDE setup at this time (sigh..)

here is what I did to try and mount the thing:

% disk/kfscmd allow
% mkdir /n/cdrom
% disk/kfscmd disallow
% 9660srv -f /dev/sdD0/data CDROM
% mount /srv/CDROM /n/cdrom

Thanks in advance for the help.

it would be useful to do
scuzz
open /dev/sdD0

(scuzz is an interactive program
with no prompt.)

and see if you get i/o errors or the like.

your 9660srv invocation looks right but i
usually use
	9660srv
	mount /srv/9660 /n/a: /dev/sdD0/data
or the like; that's what the install
script used too.
