Hi--Thanks for reading this.

At the boot up screen I get the message

Updating /etc/fstab unexpected file type for
/dev/cdrom  FAILED

Cdrom is secondary IDE slave.

Here's what I get:  

# ls -l /dev/cdrom 
total 0
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            8 Dec 12
20:12 hdd -> /dev/hdd


# dmesg | less
hdd:  _NEC CD-RW NR-7900A, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive

less fstab:

LABEL=/                 /                       ext3

# less mtab
                                                      
                                                      
                                        
                                                      
                                                      
                                          /dev/hdc2 /

none /dev/pts devpts rw,gid=5,mode=620 0 0
/dev/hdc5 /home ext3 rw 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs rw 0 0
mtab (END)

I've also tried

# ln -sf /dev/hdd dev/cdrom
ln: creating symbolic link `dev/cdrom' to `/dev/hdd':
No such file or directory

# mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
mount: mount point /mnt/cdrom does not exist


Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks
so much!

Matt
