I saw the above line in the updated Release Notes from Upstream yesterday and I was able to mount the FC6 Install DVD, as root from a terminal, and then install the kdeedu package from that DVD, without problems yesterday.
Then, last night, I tried to view the contents of the CentOS 5.0 Install DVD and no luck.
This morning, I got the following results, with the FC6 Install DVD on that box:
(1) mount - No medium found
(2) rebooted into Win ME and there was no problem
(3) took out the DVD, rebooted to CentOS 5.0, inserted the FC6 DVD into drive. # mount /dev/cdrom /media mount: block device /dev/cdrom is write protected, mounting read only and I was able to view everything on the DVD, without any problem.
I'd begun to think possibly there was a problem on the Teac DVD drive and that I should look for TEAC DVD Diagnostics, but it seems to work properly.
Any ideas? TIA, Lanny
Not sure what the problem is ... but the new (fc6/7 and centos) mounting of DVDs uses gnome-mount.
it mounts under ... /media/$ISO_NAME
it should also show on the desktop
