This is my fstab (at least, the part dealing with removable mesdia).

/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom   auto    noauto,ro,users  0 0
/dev/cdroms/cdrom1 /mnt/cdrw    auto    noauto,ro,users  0 0
/dev/hdb4          /mnt/zip     auto    noauto,users     0 0
/dev/fd0      /mnt/floppy  auto    noauto,users     0 0

For your second CD unit, I suppose all you have to do is create the
target dir (/mnt/cdrom1 according to your fstab).
To check device permissions, you need to look in /etc/devfsd.conf,
altough I think floppy drives should be ok in their default config (mine
worked without a problem).
