Description Daniel Kreuter 2011-02-16 12:36:49 CET

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:2.0b10) Gecko/20110206 Firefox/4.0b10
Build Identifier: 

Description of problem:

When I insert a cdrom it won't be mounted automatically. When running the command mount on shell I get the follwowing output:

mount /dev/sr0 /media/cdrom/
mount: block device /dev/sr0 is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: no medium found on /dev/sr0

Rebooting the system helps as workaround, but is very anoying for a normal user, only to have a dvd mounted.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Insert a new media into the cdrom drive
2. wait a few seconds
3. try to mount manually


Reproducible:

Hello,

Certain operations donât require the disk to be mounted like reading a cdrom/dvdrom. If this operation does not work, it might be a problem with your driver, or maybe a kernel bug.

Could you insert a disk and attach the output of the dmesg command ?

how does it works in current cauldron ?

Comment 3 Yann Ciret 2011-04-07 21:41:24 CEST

In my case, I see cdrom drive not mounted only when I start system with a media inserted before start machine (it's a VM). I need eject media via Virtualbox menu and only after, if I insert it, it is detected and automounted.

A GUI reading a cdrom may not need to mount it, but the contents aren't visible in a terminal until it is mounted.

Bug 145 has the same cause: if the cdrom is not mounted automatically, it is not available to urpmi etc.  I found it necessary to mount the cdrom manually after inserting it, to let the installer see it.
