[NTLUG:Discuss] mounting my cdrom revisited

[Fred James]

/dev/cdrom  /mnt/cdrom  iso9660  noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0
is how the line reads in my /etc/fstab (RH 7.2).  Since this stuff 
varies from system to system, check your man(ual) pages for "fstab" - 
but my first thought would be that your fstab cdrom entry is incorrect, 
starting with the device (first entry) that your are trying to mount. 
 "/dev/hdb" means second hard disk in everything I've read.
