Slackware does it differently as i explaned in my other mail on this
subject, it depends on /etc/rc.d/rc.cdrom being an executable file,
the command comes from /etc/rc.d/rc.M as follwos.
if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.cdrom ]; then
. /etc/rc.d/rc.cdrom
fi
2 options here, either comment out the above in /etc/rc.d/rc.M or
chmod a-x /etc/rc.d/rc.cdrom
I belive this overrides the entry in /etc/fstab.
