No, I've seen this before. Michael, have you tried "cat /proc/fstab" (or whatever file in /proc lists all the installed drivers for file systems)? I had a similar problem with a Red Hat installation on a laptop. No matter what I did, the system would not touch the CD-ROM driver after a kernel build, and it always looked like iso9660 support wasn't compiled in (even though I knew it was). Unfortunately, I never found an answer... someone suggested a bad or corrupted kernel. The frustrating thing was that SuSE never had this problem on the same machine. BTW, I had to recompile the kernel for this machine in order to turn on APM support.

not right, your trying to mount the mount point. try 'mount /dev/hdc'. if that dosen't then try 'mount /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom'. make sure the dir /mnt/cdrom exists.
My /etc/fstab looks like: <snip> /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom iso9660 ro,noauto,user 0 0
