The problem with that, is that you have to redo it for every different CD/DVD you put in.
Personnaly, I'd quite like a simple setup whereby my CD/DVDs are auto-mounted as /media/cdrom0, /media/cdrom1, USB stuff as /media/usb0, etc.
Solaris has been doing this for, oh, over ten years. It mounts the CD under it's volume name, then creates a sym link from cdrom0 to the volume name.

I have some programs that require something like /media/cdrom or /media/dvdrecorder to work, but Suse 10.2 reads the volume i.d. and uses that as the mount point, ie /media/SOME_Program.
OK, Suse developers, what would it take to get that feature included in Suse? As it stands right now, the "new" way of using the volume info as the mount point really, really sucks big time becaude there is NO - repeat NO - commonality to the mount points from one media mount to another. It seems the "new and improved" way of doing things is a giant step backwards that could be fixed by adopting Solaris's method.
