    Dear all,

    I installed a fedora FC2.B from DVD. After installation, it is
    impossible to mount an amovible device (CD, DVD, usb camera).

    When I try to mount a DVD (from KDE or gnome), I get ... n'est pas un
    périphérique valide de type bloc (not a valid block device...)

    After some googling I tried:

    "dmesg | grep hd" which gave

    Kernel command line : no root=LABEL /hdc=ide-scsi rhgb
    hdc slimtype COMBO LSC-24082, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive

    So I tried "mount /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom", result:

    /dev/hdc n'est pas un périphérique valide de type bloc

    In fstab, there is
    /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom cdf, iso 9660 noauto, owner, kudzu, ro 00

    kudzu detects (from /etc/sysconfig/hwconf):

    CDROM desc slimtype COMBO LSC-24082K
    bus SCSI
    device scd0
    driver ignore
    host 0
    channel 0
    lun 0
    generic sg0

    So I tried "mount /dev/scd0 /mnt/cdrom"

    result ... "/dev/scd0 n'est pas un périphérique valide de type bloc"

    Let see the modules : "/sbin/lsmod" gave (at least):
    scsi-mod
    uhci-hcd

    I also tried "eject /dev/sr0",It doesn't eject anything

    I have also been told to try "cd /dev" and "./MAKEDEV". I get a message
    regarding the correct way to use MAKEDEV ...

    The config:

    laptop PCTeck
    dual boot XP/fedora FC2.B (kernel 2.6.6)
    chipset VIA, CPU nehemia 1GHz, GPU VIA CLE266
    DVD/CDRW slimtype COMBO LSC-24082K

    Any advice?
            *A simple way to fix the stuff
            *Reinstalling FC1 + upgrading everything but Kernel 2.4?
            *Back to FC1? (It works)
            *Waiting FC3?

    Thank you

    PS
     No sound too.
