I have been trying to get amd to automount my CD-ROM for me, with zero
success.  The command I have been using is "amd /cdrom ./cdrom",
where the file ./cdrom contains

	/defaults	type:=ufs

	cd	type:=program;\
		mount:="/sbin/mount_cd9660 mount_cd9660 /dev/cd0a ${fs}";\
		umount:="/sbin/umount umount /dev/cd0a";

as per an earlier suggestion in freebsd-questions.  The error
messages I get back are:

	Jun 14 22:46:01 grey amd[864]/info:  file server localhost type local starts up
	Jun 14 22:46:01 grey amd[865]/info:  defeating nfs window computation
	Jun 14 22:46:01 grey amd[865]/error: /cdrom: mount: Operation not supported by device
	Jun 14 22:46:02 grey amd[865]/error: /cdrom: mount: Operation not supported by device
	Jun 14 22:46:02 grey amd[865]/fatal: mount_toplvl: Operation not supported by device
	Jun 14 22:46:02 grey amd[864]/error: /cdrom: mount (afs_cont): Operation not supported by device


Better yet, if I do "amd /mnt /dev/null", I get essentially the
same behavior!  Is there some sort of kernel option or related
configuration item that I'm missing?

Oh yes, /etc/motd contains "FreeBSD 2.1.0-RELEASE (GREY) #3: Mon
Feb 12 09:27:21 PST 1996".
