I am running 4.2a ultrix on Decstation 5000/240's. I am trying to mount
the cd drive on the file system.

mount -t cdfs -r /dev/rz4c /cdrom

However, I get the message 
cdfs_mount: Unknown descriptor type.

Am I missing something? I have the two lines in the configeration file
that are required for cdrom operation. cdfs_mount exists in /bin, and I
get the same error if I directly use the command cdfs_mount. Thanks,

leslie gordon
