Subject: Mount points for CD-ROM

I was surprised that I had to create mount points and use an explicit
mount to read a CD-ROM:
# mkdir /media/cdrom
# mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom
Is this typical? Is there some RPM that creates the mount points?
I don't mind becoming root to do the mount -- I was just surprised
the mount points weren't already there.
There are no packages that create mount point directories.
Mounting a CD on the Gnome desktop is done through HAL. The CD is
mounted automagically with permissions set to the local user. You do not
have to create any directories or issue any command line arguments for
this to happen.
