Yes, these are the things I think when I wake up at 6 am.  It&#8217;s 40GB, but since it&#8217;s a quarter full already and I&#8217;ve got lots more video to work with, I want to avoid the hassle later.  The first step is backing up what&#8217;s there.  Why not use the DVD drive?  I poped in a DVD+RW and clicked on the DVD icon on my desktop.  Instead of the directory listing in Konqueror, a message box came up telling me<br \/>\n<br \/><code>Could not mount device.<br \/>\n<br \/>The reported error was:<br \/>\n<br \/>mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on \/dev\/dvd, or too many mounted file systems<br \/>\n<br \/>(could this be the IDE device where you in fact use ide-scsi so that sr0 or sda or so is needed?)<\/code><\/p>\n<p>Pretty nice error message, huh?  I had set up IDE-SCSI emulation earlier for the DVD burning tools, but I didn&#8217;t update my entries in <code>\/etc\/fstab<\/code> nor my links in <code>\/dev<\/code>.  <code>\/dev\/dvd<\/code> was pointing to <code>\/dev\/cdrom<\/code> which was pointing to <code>\/dev\/hdc<\/code> and there was no entry for the DVD in <code>\/etc\/fstab<\/code>.  So I added <code>\/dev\/dvd\t\/mnt\/dvd\tudf,iso9660\tuser,noauto,kudzu,ro\t0 0<\/code> to <code>\/etc\/fstab<\/code> and made <code>\/dev\/dvd<\/code> point to <code>\/dev\/scd0<\/code>.  Now I got &#8220;no medium&#8221; when I put a disk in.  <code>cat \/proc\/scsi\/scsi<\/code> told me the Plextor PX-708A was on scsi host scsi1, channel 0, id 0, lun 0 but not which device in <code>\/dev<\/code> it was attached to.  This ought to be in <code>\/var\/log\/messages<\/code> (<code>dmesg<\/code>) but thanks to long uptimes and having a million Windows machines bombarding my firewill, the startup messages scrolled out of <code>\/var\/log\/messages*<\/code>.  After scratching my head awhile and contemplating a reboot to see the startup log, I remembered scd0 is the first SCSI CD device&#8211;my older Plextor PX-W1210S, which is actually a SCSI unit.  After changing <code>\/dev\/dvd<\/code> to point to <code>\/dev\/scd<b>1<\/b><\/code>, it mounted.  I need some coffee.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Before getting too far into the DVD creation project, I thought I&#8217;d increase the size of my editing partion.
