When I tried to reboot /dev/cdrom failed to mount, which is fine, since it had no CD in it. But that caused the following messages:

Code: Select all

[DEPEND] Dependency failed for Local File System
[DEPEND] Dependency failed for Mark the need to relable after reboot
[DEPEND] Dependency failed for Relabel all filesystems, if necessary

It then offered to let me to log in as root for maintenance, or to press Ctrl-D to continue, but no matter how many times I tried to continue it would just repeat the offer to let me log in as root. The problem went away once I put a iso9660 type CD into the drive and rebooted.

So, what sort of configuration option do I need to set (or unset) so the booting sequence won't care if it can find a mountable CD?

Please post the contents of your /etc/fstab

/etc/fstab:

Code: Select all

# Entry for /dev/sda5 :

There is no need to have an /etc/fstab entry for a cdrom drive so comment it out like this

Code: Select all

# /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom iso9660 defaults 0 0
