Volume Manager Might Fail to Mount CD-ROM (4355643)

A CD-ROM with an unusual data layout might fail to mount automatically. The File Manager window might not display the CD-ROM's contents after it is inserted into the drive.

Workaround: Mount the CD-ROM manually:

1. Become root.

2. Stop the volume manager:

   /etc/init.d/volmgt stop

3. Mount the CD-ROM:

   mount -F hsfs -r device_pathname /mnt

   Where device_pathname is the pathname to where in the system the CD-ROM drive is connected to. For example, /dev/dsk/c0t6d0s0.

   Note -

   CD-ROM drives are typically connected to c0t6d0s0 or to c0t2d0s0 at the factory, but you must use the correct pathname for this command to work.

4. Restart the volume manager:

   /etc/init.d/volmgt start
