Just downloaded and compiled 2.3.33 kernel, and tried to mount the CDROM
drive.
This is the result:
$ ps ax
...
932 ? D 0:00 mount /dev/hdc /mnt
...
$
ok, let's try again
$ mount /dev/hdc /mnt
hang....
(new terminal)
$ ps ax
...
873 ? D 0:00 mount /dev/hdc /mnt/
932 ? D 0:00 mount /dev/hdc /mnt
...
$
Both terminals on which I executed the mount command, never returned to
the prompt. I had problems with resets being sent to the Cdrom drive(s)
in earlier kernels, but everything seemed to work after the reset occurred
on the drive. This time it just died, effectively locking my cdrom in the
drive. Guess I'll have to reboot.
Here are some relevant messages:
At boot:
