Changing "noauto" to "auto" in a /etc/fstab line means the device will
be mounted at boot.  It does not mean it will be mounted at the time
someone tries to access the cd reader.
   On the other hand, autofs can be used to mount the cdrom when an
attempt is made to access /mnt/cdrom, or magicdev can be used to mount
the cdrom whenever it's inserted.
