@Manikandan,
Just insert your RHEL DVD and issue following command to mount the packages.

# cd /dev/cdrom /mnt

I am trying to block the CD drives in RHEL and I did that

1. cd /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/cdrom ;

2 . mv cdrom.ko cdrom.ko.bak ;

3. echo ‘blacklist sr_mod’ >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf ;

4. echo ‘modprobe -r sr_mod’ >> /etc/rc.local ;

Now CD ROM is blocked as it’s not coming, But I have to unblock it so I removed the entry which I did in “/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf” and “/etc/rc.local” also rename the .ko file to its original one. and also rebooted the system.

Now there is no file name cdrom, DVD, sr0, hdc in /dev (All are missing ) now how can I mount a CD without them…So can I bring them back?

Please help…
