I've got a problem, even though I didn't install linux through my CD rom, I'd like to get the drive to work. According to boot-up, my ATAPI(?) CD ROM drive is under the 'hdd' label. It's a mitsumi FX400 drive, and I dont't know what to do.. if i edit my /etc/fstab... and put the CD ROM as /cdrom iso9660... and all that crap, and i use /dev/hdd.. what will i accomplish?? I can't do it! Somebody help please.

/etc/fstab follows this convention:
/device/name /mount/point filesystem options pass(fsck) dump
In your case...
/dev/hdd /cdrom iso9660 defaults,noauto,user,ro 0 0
Something like that should work...
