You have BSD/OS 2.0.1 or older, or are running 2.1 and have customized your boot defaults. You want: mount -r -t cd9660 /dev/sd2c /cdrom If you're running 2.1: mount -r -t cd9660 /dev/sr2c /cdrom and if you happen to be running 1.x: mount -r -t iso9660 /dev/sd2c /cdrom Terry Kennedy Operations Manager, Academic Computing terry@spcvxa.spc.edu St. Peter's College, Jersey City, NJ USA +1 201 915 9381 (voice) +1 201 435-3662 (FAX)
