Using iLO

On servers with a locally attached IDE CD-ROM, the virtual CD-ROM device is accessible at /dev/cdrom1. However, on servers without a locally attached CD-ROM, such as the BL-class blade systems, the virtual CD-ROM is the first CD-ROM accessible at /dev/cdrom.

The virtual CD-ROM can be mounted as a normal CD-ROM device using:

mount /mnt/cdrom1

−SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 7

The SLES 7 operating system places USB-connected CD-ROMs in a different location, so the virtual CD-ROM can be found at /dev/scd0, unless there is already a USB-connected local CD-ROM, in which case it would be /dev/scd1.

The virtual CD-ROM can be mounted as a normal CD-ROM device using:

mount /dev/scd0 /mnt/cdrom

−UnitedLinux 1.0

The UnitedLinux 1.0 operating system might not properly support USB- connected CD-ROM devices. To ensure proper handling of the virtual CD-ROM, you must boot the operating system with the acpi=oldboot parameter.

The UnitedLinux 1.0 operating system places USB-connected CD- ROMs in a different location, so the virtual CD-ROM can be found at /dev/scd0, unless there is already a USB-connected local CD-ROM, in which case it would be /dev/scd1.

The virtual CD-ROM can be mounted as a normal CD-ROM device using:

mount /dev/scd0 /mnt/cdrom
