Bash & Mounting CD-ROM

[Matt Holtz]

mount /cdrom will work if there is an entry in /etc/fstab and if /cdrom
exists.

my entry looks like this:
/dev/wcd0c              /cdrom          cd9660  ro,noauto       0 0

obviously you could also do:
/sbin/mount -t cd9660 /dev/wcd0c /cdrom

(off the top of my head)
