Thank you all for your help with this so far! I love this list! I fiddled with this over the weekend, and got things working. The below fstab entry you sent was what was in /etc/fstab, thanks. 'mount /cdrom' works on this machine *only if* a cd is in the drive during boot up. I have not tested this extensively.
