Just use /dev/cdrom instead of /dev/hdd. A system will take care that this is a proper link. Also there are CDs which are not in iso9660 format (like those hfsplus from Mac) so "auto" filesystem type could be preferable. > I don't know if they will matter because they wont be > automatically mounted. They will be not mounted automatically by hal and desktop and just remove those lines if you want that to happen. OTOH it is not hard to arrange to mount such removables via autofs. This may have some advantages. You likely would not want in such situation to do that with mount points below /media though as those are used by hal.
