Here's what he's lookin' for:
/mnt/floppy /mnt/floppy supermount fs=vfat,dev=/dev/fd0 0 0
/mnt/cdrom /mnt/cdrom supermount fs=iso9660,dev=/dev/cdrom 0 0
/mnt/cdrom2 /mnt/cdrom2 supermount fs=iso9660,dev=/dev/cdrom2 0 0
Those are the pertinent lines that were done by Mandrake 7.0 install back
when it was cooker and I first put it up on my machine. /mnt/cdrom is my
burner, cdrom2 is my reader.
