The naming of the cdrom has changed from 3.x to 4.x. I do not remember the old
name but the new name is /dev/acd0c for an ATAPI cdrom. So you must have
in /etc/fstab something like...
/dev/acd0c              /cdrom          cd9660  ro,noauto       0       0


Maybe you encounter this kind of trouble.

Phil.
