Using Your CD Drive
Mounting and Unmounting a CD
The
Select a Disk to Add...
window opens with a list of unused
mass-storage devices. Highlight the CD device containing the CD you
want to mount.
Click on
OK
.
The
Add CD-ROM Disk
window opens. Enter the desired mount point
(the directory under which the CD’s contents will appear in your
entire file system) and click on
OK
. A typical CD mount point is
/dev/CD
, although you can mount it wherever you want. If the
directory you specify does not yet exist, SAM will create it for you.
The following screen message appears:
Mounting file system...
Now you can access the CD as you would any other mounted file system.
Unmounting a CD Using SAM
Use the following procedure to unmount a CD:
NOTE
Before you unmount a CD, make sure that your working directory (the
directory you’re currently “in”) is not set to any directory on the CD—this
goes for all shell windows. If you attempt to unmount a file system when
one or more working directories are set somewhere in the file system
you’re trying to unmount, you’ll get an error message something like
this:
cannot unmount /dev/CD: device busy
To avoid this error message, simply
cd
to some directory that is known to
not
be in the file system you want to unmount; for example, the root
directory
/
or your home directory. Again, make sure you do this for
all
shell windows.
1.
Log in as
root
. If you need information on logging in or setting up a
user account, see
Using Your HP Workstation

In a terminal window, enter the following command:
