Unable to mount CD

[fosu01]

When I finished the installation and try to install it on a hard drive, I get the error that the system is unable to mount the CD!
Any ideas?

if you finish installation, not need to install on HD.

Please describe step you do to do install, or read the setup & user guide: http://wiki.nas4free.org/doku.php?id=do ... user_guide

I run installation from the CD. At the menu I choose option 3, Install 'full' OS on HDD + DATA + SWAP partition.
I select the the source CD and the hard drive I want to install i on.
Then I get a message saying:
Mount CDROM
g_vfs_done():cd1[READ(offset=32768, length=2048)]error = 5
Error: Failed to mount device 'cd1'!
There was a problem while mounting the CDROM drive

OK, the error is related to BSD install CD , not to Nas4free, but you have at least 2 options:
1- Do not use CD and install embeded ( you need *.img and a tool to write image).

but because you want to do a full install perhaps option 1 do not like so option 2 is:

2- change CD reader for other brand / or SATA connector ( some times the SATA is from a unsoported chip), so provisionally use other SATA port, perhaps works for you. (if fails try a USB cd-reader, sometimes a frien can give you one for a time).

CD-reader is need only first time when install or when do you want to upgrade. so you can detach while not in use.

Thank´s for info but I think I´ve tried all those options. Even different motherboards ( ASUS an Gigabyte) with same result.
Also tried with a USB-reader but no luck

strange, because install for CD-Rom is the default method and works for a lot of people.

Sorry, but I can't help you.

I have got the exactly same problem trying to solve. My system and dvd-rom is known to work at least for 9.0.0.1 - Sandstorm (revision 141). But not anymore for newer versions.

I will try different cables and dvd/cd-roms the coming days but i doubt it will help becourse it loads like it should from the DVD. The problem arrives when i choose to install from the DVD to HD. Im using PATA for my dvd-rom.
