Very Computer

I have a Sun Ultra1 with cdrom drive, but i can't find the file /cdrom/*,
there is no such directory, even in /dev/dsk, there are some files c0t0d0s?,
there is no c1t?d?s? files, how can i create the cdrom file?

Thanks in advance!

Have you tried to boot with

boot -r

?

This boot command configures the devices. If this doesn't help try
probe-scsi,
maybe you have a hardware problem.

This is indicated in Solaris's FAQs on the Web. Anyway, usually you can use:
mount -F hsfs -r /dev/dsk/c2t0d0s0 /mnt

But if you have Volmgt enabled, insert your cdrom, type "volcheck" and there you
go. At last, if you don't have the devices created, do the following:
#touch /reconfigure
#reboot

this will recreate the devices properly.

ps: guess Solaris version is 2.5.1 or above ?

just like this:

cd /
mkdir cdrom

then:

try to insert a cd-rom disk in the reader, and verify (after a few seconds)
that the auto-mount is done

doing :

ls -l /cdrom

if this does not work you probably have to mount manually the device
using mount (take a look at man mount)

ensure the line starting with ..use cdrom .. is not commented out.
Try running your volume manager demon
