I am going nuts trying to figure out how to get kudzu to stop trying
to
mount "extra" cdrom drives. I have two drives, a cdrw on hdc and a dvd
player on hdd. I have added hdc=ide-scsi hdd=ide-scsi to my kernel line
in grub.conf. I have created links /dev/cdrom linked to /dev/scd0 and
/dev/cdrom1 linked to /dev/scd1.
I have changed /etc/fstab to read
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom udf,iso9660
noauto,user,ro 0 0
/dev/cdrom1 /mnt/cdrom1 udf,iso9660
noauto,user,ro 0 0
trying not to use kudzu for the cdrom drives.
When I reboot, kudzu insists on creating new links /dev/cdrom2 to
/dev/hdc and /dev/cdrom3 to /dev/hdd, and adding lines as follows to
/etc/fstab.
/dev/cdrom2 /mnt/cdrom2 udf,iso9660
noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0
/dev/cdrom3 /mnt/cdrom3 udf,iso9660
noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0
This all worked fine when I set it up this way in RHL8.0 and RHL9.
How can I resolve this?
Gerry, if this is of any help: I have the same hardware
configuration as
you do: viz: /dev/hdc is my cdwriter, and /dev/hdd is my DVD drive.
My grub.conf file has not been modified from the default:
# grub.conf generated by anaconda
#
# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file
# NOTICE: You have a /boot partition. This means that
# all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /boot/, eg.
# root (hd0,0)
# kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/hda2
# initrd /initrd-version.img
#boot=/dev/hda
default=0
timeout=10
splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
title Red Hat Linux (2.4.21-20.1.2024.2.1.nptl)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.21-20.1.2024.2.1.nptl ro root=LABEL=/ hdd=ide-scsi
initrd /initrd-2.4.21-20.1.2024.2.1.nptl.img
And here are the contents of my fstab file:
LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 1 1
LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2
none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
/dev/hda3 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom udf,iso9660
noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0
/dev/cdrom1 /mnt/cdrom1 udf,iso9660
noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0
/dev/hdb /mnt/ls120.0 auto noauto,owner,kudzu 0 0
cdrom1 (cdwriter) and cdrom (DVD drive) are the Secondary Master and
Slave drives on my system.
HTH,
Elton ;-)
