Hello,
I umounted a CD-ROM but I couldn't mount it again.
First I found the device with hinv, that showed:

CDROM: unit 6 on SCSI controller 1

After that, I issued the command:
mount -rt iso9660 /dev/scsi/sc1d6l0 /CDROM

The messages errors were:

mount_iso9660: ERROR: Unable to translate to scsiname for dev("/dev/scsi/sc1d6l0"), errno = 2
mount_iso9660: can't initialize /dev/scsi/sc1d6l0: No such file or directory
mount: giving up on: /CDROM

I will appreciate any help.
 
You can also restart the mediad daemon with

/etc/init.d/mediad stop
/etc/init.d/mediad start

which might help.
 
I am having this same problem and the above suggestions have not fixed it.

My device is the same, but it's found at:
/dev/scsi/sc1d1l0

Any more suggestions?

Thanks-
josh
 
Alternatively you can use;

mount -t hfs /dev/rdsk/dks1d6vol /CDROM Thief................ ::)
(I think the surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us .)
