RE: How to mount cd rom

You can mount a CD using the command 'mount <device> /mnt/source' where
<device> is the device designation of you CD drive (some special device
file in /dev). You may also need to use the options '-o iso9660' and/or
'-n' of mount command due to a rescue mode.

in rescue mode; it's not mounted under /mnt/source ; thanks.

BOOT from Linux install disk1

type
Linux rescue

when asked to mount in rescue mode - answer yes

do chroot /mnt/sysimage

Df -k

This will be your rescue mode.

I am fixing MBR/grub as we speak in rescue mode .

I have a quick question when using the redhat rescue environment; I
understand that when using the rescue environment via an install disk
(linux rescue askmethod) and selecting for example a nfs source for
the
source binaries that the rescue environment will mount the sources
under
/mnt/source ; I can't seem to find though where the rescue environment
is mounting the local cd drive; Any ideas? Thanks very much.
