In the later versions of Solaris, the volume management daemon (vold) will automatically mount removable media like floppies, cd's, dvd's, and even flash media. Here's how to manually mount media without vold:


Mounting a local hard drive:

# mount /dev/dsk/c0t1d0s0 /mnt

Mounting a local cd-rom:

# mount -F hsfs -o ro /dev/dsk/c0t6d0s0 /mnt

Mounting a local dvd-rom:

# mount -F udfs -o ro /dev/dsk/c0t6d0s0 /mnt

Mounting a floppy disk (ms-dos format):

# mount -F pcfs /dev/fd0 /mnt

Mounting a usb flash drive:

# mount -F pcfs /dev/dsk/c1t0d0s2:c /mnt

Mounting a remote NFS share:

# mount -F nfs servername:/export/share /mnt

  where:  servername is the name or IP address of the remote system
          /export/share is the filesystem being shared
          /mnt is the local mount point
