I tried changing the auto to iso9660 and I still get the "mount: /mnt/cdrom is not a
valid block device"  I tried all combinations (/dev/cdrom, /dev/hdc, /mnt/cdrom) and
still the same error message.  I can mount the second cdrom though.  "mount /dev/cdrom2
/mnt/cdrom2" works but not the primary cdrom. Arerrgg!!  =( HELP!!!! =(
