RedHat does not assume hdb. It detects the cdrom at install time and adds
a coorect entry to /etc/fstab. I would assume that other distros do the
same. My cdrom drive was on hdd when I did the redhat install, and it
correctly detected it. If yours is really misdetected then tell redhat
about it so they can fix it.
