CDROM not mounting [solved]

SleepingGiant08 · 2007-01-16 22:05:47

I know this is probably a really easy thing to fix, but I am tired and can't figure this out.
I am trying to read an audio CD and I can't mount my Cdrom (/dev/cdrom). Says either cannot determine file type or invalid file type.
Here is my fstab:

# 
# /etc/fstab: static file system information
#
# <file>        <dir>         <type>    <options>          <dump> <pass>
none                   /dev/pts      devpts    defaults            0      0
none                   /dev/shm      tmpfs     defaults            0      0

/dev/cdrom             /mnt/cd   auto   rw,user,noauto   0      0
/dev/dvd               /mnt/dvd  udf       ro,user,noauto,unhide   0      0
/dev/fd0               /mnt/fl   vfat      user,noauto             0      0

/dev/sda2 / reiserfs defaults 0 0
/dev/sda1 /mnt/Windows ntfs defaults 0 0

Trying to get MPD and Sonata to work. Thanks alot!

First, I assume you mean you want to keep a compressed file on the PC for mpd to use. so you are looking for a CD ripper. Some music players do this for you, others (like mpd) don't. To fill this task, I suggest the following:

· abcde: It's a command line app, that is very configurable, and has cddb lookup. It's a nice little application, and #1 on my list.
· gRip: It's a GUI application, and fits nicely into gnome, (duh, it's gtk). My 2nd choice, only because I've grown away from GUI applications for tasks like this.
· Well there is no 3, mostly because I don't know of a KDE/QT app that accomplishes this task. From what I can tell, most everyone who uses KDE, and a good chunk who don't, is in love with amarok, which does the whole 6 yards for you, rip and play. The missing 3 is because for some reason, without full KDE (the way I am running it currently, got curious to see what all the buzz was about) you can't burn a cd from it.

Thanks hugin.
How about Sound Juicer, and ripping into FLAC?
Can Sound Juicer rip music DVDs?

RE Sound Juicer: really, I don't know. I'm not a gnome guy (used to be, but by that time I was weening off of GUI applications).

RE Music DVDs: I used gRip long ago before I was as macho as I am today, and I don't have any Music DVDs, so I really have no idea how/if that works.

RE FLAC: All of my suggestions can be configured to rip to flac. I was an ogg guy, but since my acquisition of an mp3 player, I have gone back to mp3.

cheers,

I strongly recommend Amarok for everything, it's a terrific app.
You can easily rip by opening a konqueror window and dragging the contents of the audio cd from either the mp3, ogg or whole cd folders, into whichever folder you like. (Drag from the respective format you like)
I also have used kaudiocreator, with 100% success.

I suggest trying gnormalize, it's in AUR.
I think it can do everything that you want.

Arch Linux
