I have a compaq EVO notebook with a Compaq DVD-ROM. When I insert a disc it does'nt mount automatically and I'm not able to mount in CL. This is how my fstab looks like:

/dev/hda2 / reiserfs acl,user_xattr 1 1
/dev/hda1 swap swap pri=42 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts mode=0620,gid=5 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
usbfs /proc/bus/usb usbfs noauto 0 0
sysfs /sys sysfs noauto 0 0
/dev/dvd /media/dvd subfs fs=cdfss,ro,procuid,nosuid,nodev,exec,iocharset=ut f8 0 0
/dev/fd0 /media/floppy subfs fs=floppyfss,procuid,nodev,nosuid,sync 0 0

As you can see there's an entry for my DVD-ROM but it seems to be something wrong with the options?!?

Any clues?

It should probably be/dev/hdc /media/dvd subfs fs=cdfss,ro,procuid,nosuid,nodev,exec,iocharset=ut ... or whatecer IDE channel your DVD is hooked up to.

What does ls -l /dev/dvd give you?

I executed your tip and it turned out that it was /dev/hdc
and NOT /dev/dvd. I changed the line and now I'm able to access my discs :-)

THANKS (eller skall jag säga TACK :-)

You might want to check, but /dev/dvd is usually a link to /dev/hdc
