1 The corresponding lines in my fstab looks like:
2
3 /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom auto noauto,ro,user 0 0
4 /dev/cdroms/cdrom1 /mnt/dvdrw auto noauto,rw,user 0 0
5
6 To figure out which is cdrom0 and which is cdrom1, you can either guess
7 & check, or do:
8
9 ls -l /dev/cdroms
10
11 and see what they're pointed to. Usually, it'll be HDA, HDB, HDC, or
12 HDD, depending on whether it's on the Primary Master, Pri Slave, Sec
13 Master, or Sec Slave, respectively.
14
15 The "user" part in the 4th column allows the device to be mounted by a
16 normal user, not just 'root'.

18 Hope that helps!
