Have you tried mounting SCSI disk devices? You are running ide-scsi, so
it will, IIRC, map the IDE device to a SCSI device. Try running:
dmesg | grep sd
to see if any sd devices are being created. If there's one that
mentions your CD-ROM or ide-scsi, I'd try mounting that device.
Another stupid question, but I have to ask it: Are you sure
/mnt/auto/cdrom is a valid directory?
