Anyone know how to set the execute rights on a CD in fstab? The line in my fstab is currently: /dev/hdc /cdrom iso9660 ro/noauto/user 0 0.
Thanks!

Hello Fred,
The option "user" implies that user may mount a disk and therefor do nasty thigs to the system. Therefor, the option "noexec" that prohibits programm execution is aktive too.
You can add "exec" to the list of options, or mount the cd manually as root umount /dev/hdc mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdc /cdrom
the mount options, if questions remain are well described in mounts man page.
That is correct, however, he need to make the CD executable, and that is the best way to do it, or so I've found. After installs have been made, then just simple edit fstab again. Fred -- Fred A.
