ok , I'm running DSLinux, ext2, P233mhz, 2GB HD, 32mb RAM
I have DSL installed on my harddrive, everything was working fine, cdrom, floppy.
I created a swapfile for dsl in /opt , the swapfile works fine.
CDrom and Floppy stopped working. The specific error on boot is
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock -on /dev/cdrom, or too many mounted file systems.
So then I removed the swapfile from loading at boot in fstab, thinking that I would be able to access my cdrom and floppy again but this didn't work.
From what I've been reading it seems that it is perhaps (most likely) it was a symlink that is now pointing to the wrong place (for some unknown reason).
I try
mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
and I get
/dev/cdrom: Input/output error mount:block device /dev/cdrom is write-protected, mounting read-only /dev/cdrom: Input/output error mount: you must specify the filesystem type.
I also tried
mount -t iso9660 -o ro /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
and that gives me the error,
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock -on /dev/cdrom, or too many mounted file systems.
My goal is to get my cdrom and floppy drive working again. Please help.
