unable to mount CD drive
This is an unsual puzzle for me. Using Enterprise v3.5 I'm unable to automount a CD. Tried the following and it worked at first but upon reboot using the same commands as before (listed below) now return the error, mount: you must specify the file type system. CD Properties dialog has 'Mount when CD inserted' selected. Thanks in advance for any suggestions?
ls -s /dev/scd0 cdrom
mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
--------------------------
Here is the fstab information.
/dev/md0 / ext3 defaults 1 1
LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2
none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
/dev/sda5 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto,owner,kudzu 0 0
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom udf,iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0
/dev/cdrom1 /mnt/cdrom1 udf,iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0
ls -s /dev/scd0 cdrom
mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom

Can you cut and paste your /etc/auto.misc file here?
