Subject: [expert] "noauto" Filesytems being mounted at boot

This has been bothering me for some time now, but I thought it was
something I misconfigued on my system.  I have my optical drives
(CD-RW and DVD-ROM) like so in my fstab:

/dev/scd0 /mnt/cdrom2 iso9660 noauto,ro,user 0 0
/dev/dvd /mnt/dvd iso9660 noaouto,ro,user 0 0

So I don't want them to auto-mount (like at boot time from rc.sysinit)
and I want the user to be able to control mount/umount of these
devices.

But, at boot time, if there is a disc in either drive, it is mounted
and I have to be superuser to umount the disc.

Also, if there is no disc in any optical drive, rc.sysinit complains
about no media.

Can someone enlighten me here?
