sorry, kernel checks for mount points (this comes as a side effect and is not 
intentional actually). But what it really allows you to do is

[EMAIL PROTECTED] sudo mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
mount: block device /dev/cdrom is write-protected, mounting read-only
[EMAIL PROTECTED] sudo mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom/Mandrake
mount: block device /dev/cdrom is write-protected, mounting read-only
[EMAIL PROTECTED] cat /proc/mounts
rootfs / rootfs rw 0 0
/dev/root / reiserfs rw 0 0
none /dev devfs rw 0 0
none /proc proc rw 0 0
none /dev/pts devpts rw 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs rw 0 0
none /mnt/floppy supermount rw,sync 0 0
/dev/hda1 /wrk reiserfs rw 0 0

I have kernel 2.4.19-24mdk with supermount enabled. 
First, I umount /mnt/cdrom. Then I mount /mnt/cdrom TWICE and the system indicates no 
error !! The "Used by" field of lsmod for supermount also goes up by one everytime I 
mount 
thus showing that supermount is aware of it. 
How can a cd devicd be mounted more than once to the same mount point ? This is very 
ridiculous.
