Ok. Try making your statement for the CDROM in /etc/fstab
look like this:

/dev/hdd      /mnt/cdrom    iso9660  noauto,user,ro 0 0

This basically tells Linux not to try mounting the CDROM at
bootup, that it's a CDROM format of media, that any
user should be able to mount/unmount the cdrom, and (I
think) to never check for bad blocks, etc on that drive
(that's the "0 0" part.)

that's copied straight out of my /etc/fstab and the only
changes I made were deleting some "whitespace" so it would
fit on one line and changing from hdc to hdd for your
setup. :-)
