Why doesn BRU 17 CD mount properly on my HP-UX system?

0

The BRU 17 CD is formatted to iso9660 standards with the Rock Ridge extensions. While most Unix/Linux systems recognize this format, some, such as HP-UX, do not. When properly mounted, a list of the CD’s base directory should show something like the following. Note that there are no metacharacter filenames, just alpha-numeric: dr-xr-xr-x . . . Manuals/ -r–r–r– . . . README -r–r–r– . . . autorun.sh dr-xr-xr-x . . . brufiles/ -r-xr-xr-x . . . install dr-xr-xr-x . . . unsupported/ You must mount the CD as an iso9660. Under HP-UX, you will need the PFS utilities, pfs_mount and pfs_umount as outlined in HP Technical Document KBAN00000197. To mount a Rock Ridge iso9660 CD, use the following (substituting for your device name [x]): # pfs_mount -t rrip /dev/dsk/cxtxdx /cdrom WARNING: To unmount, do not use the normal umount command. This can (will) lock up your system and require a reboot to clear! To unmount a Rock Ridge iso9660 CD: # pfs_umount /cdrom It is also suggested in the HP Tec
