one of the following should solve the issue:

mount -o rr,ro /dev/dsk/cxtxdx /mount/dir

mount -F cdfs -o cdcase /dev/dsk/cxtxdx /mount/dir

Try

mount -F cdfs -o cdcase /dev/dsk/c0t0d0 /cdrom

or

mount -F cdfs -e -o ro,rr /dev/dsk/c0t0d0 /cdrom

Shalom,

You need different mount options.

http://www.hpux.ws/?p=20

That might give you a clue, though the document is designed for Oracle.

I see that you are trying to mount a Red Hat rpm disk on HP-UX. You can not to much other than be an NFS server.

If you are building a nfs install point for Red Hat you can just post the iso files to an NFS share. rpm's are only required for ftp and http boot.

More links:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10926_01/doc/owb.101/b12150/appbcdmount.htm

I can't try this but:

mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom

I didn't read the links (yet) but none of the above options worked at all.

The CD was mounted on a PC and copied from there...

>>I didn't read the links (yet) but none of the above options worked at all.

So all responses got 10 points anyway? That makes a whole lot sense.

So what DID happen when you tried the various mount options? I'm really surprised the '-o rr' option didn't work.

Please give me zero for this as my first response was unhelpfu.

So you are sticking a Red Hat CD in a Windoze CD/DVD-ROM, copying it and expecting to be able to mount it.

Better idea.

Stick it in a Red Hat system.

The OS will mount it automatically, and copy it to an NFS share.

Please state the purpose for your query? Why you are trying to do this might be helpful in helping you solve the problem.

Totally agree with Patrick on the point assignment, though it does make up for the 10 point responses that are often left without points.

Have fun. No more help from me without a mission statement.

:-)
