Bug Description

Binary package hint: mount

If the line in /etc/fstab reads this (default):

------
/dev/hda /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0 0
------

only ISO disks will mount upon insertion, but not UDF ones.
Double clicking on the drive icon returns this error:

------
mount: block device /dev/hda is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda,
       missing codepage or other error
       in some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
       dmesg | tail or so
------

Manual mounting with sudo and the "-t UDF" option works.

But if the /etc/fstab line is changed to:

------
/dev/hda /media/cdrom0 iso9660,udf user,noauto 0 0
------

then both types mount upon disk insertion, as they should.

This has been verified by at least one other forum member.

I experienced this same bug, some cd's could be read fine but data dvd's refused to be mounted and I would receive the error mentioned above. Switching the iso and udf as mentioned above seemed to resolve this issue as I can now mount both automatically.

I can confirm this also on Ubuntu LTS 6.06.

For me switching the two filesystem type didn't do the job (udf worked, but iso9660 no more).
If you have the same problem, try using "auto" instead of "iso9660,udf", that worked for me.

"auto" option didn't do the trick for me. That's why I ended up trying different things in the first place.

Changig iso9660,udf to udf,iso9660 enabled automatic moutning support for UDF disk but broke support for iso9660 ones.
I am using KDE.

Can confirm this for Ubuntu 7.04. Switching the two filesystems did the trick for me.
