Mounting the Support Plus CD
Chapter 114
Mounting the Support Plus CD
1. Open a terminal window and log in as root on the system.
2. Insert the Support Plus CD into the drive.
3. If necessary, define a new directory as the mount point for the CD
drive. For example, to define /
cdrom as the mount point:
mkdir /
cdrom
4. If necessary, identify the drive device file:
ioscan -fnC disk
This command lists all recognized CD drives and their associated
device files. The filename will be similar to /dev/dsk/c1t2d0.
5. Mount the CD drive to the mount-point directory:
mount -r /dev/dsk/
device_filename / cdrom
For example, if the CD drive’s device filename is clt2d0:
mount -r /dev/dsk/c1t2d0 /
cdrom
If the CD drive’s device filename is not c1t2d0, use the name you
found using ioscan in Step 4.
6. You can now access the CD via the mount-point directory:
ls /
cdrom
