OK John, I copied the new fstab file you provided to the etc directory. 

On boot up I now get two FAILED lines. 

The first one reads:
Supermount error (device 0/12) supermount_read_sup er:no dev: <file
system> option

The second reads:
Mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock or none, or too many
mounted file systems 

However the two drives appear to be working as expected.

My CD ROM drive now appears as device scd0 in the hardware list.
Mount point: /mnt/cdrom 
Device: scd0
Type: auto
Options: supermount,ro,user,iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850,mask=0 

My CDRW drive once again appears on my mandrake command center twice,
once as /dev/hdb and once as /dev/scd1. 
For mount point it says /mnt/cdrw. 
Device is scd1 
Type auto 
Options supermount,ro,user,iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850,unmask=0

Again thanks for the unbelievable amount of assistance. Believe me it is
truly appreciated!!
