    I must echo the experience of Horst von Brand (vonbrand@sleipnir.valparaiso.cl)
    with the report that under 2.3.99-pre6-3 when trying to mount an ATAPI
    CD-Rom drive the following error gets returned:

    mount /cdrom/
    mount: /dev/hda is not a valid block device

    this is with the following entry in fstab:

    /dev/hda /cdrom iso9660 ro,noauto,user 0 0

    lsmod shows:
