Greetings,

I just completed a new install of 2.2.5-R on to a 'virgen' HD at work.
I'm having a strange problem I don't understand.  If I try to mount a
cdrom with mount /cdrom (as root) I get the following error:

root@thingie(101)# mount /cdrom
cd9660: /dev/cd0a: Device not configured
root@thingie(102)# cat /etc/fstab
# Device                Mountpoint      FStype  Options         Dump

/dev/sd0a               /               ufs     rw              1       1
/dev/sd0s1f             /usr            ufs     rw              2       2
/dev/sd0s1e             /var            ufs     rw              2       2
proc                    /proc           procfs  rw              0       0
/dev/cd0a               /cdrom          cd9660  ro,noauto       0       0
root@thingie(103)# 

If I try mounting the *same* cdrom with mount_cd9660 /dev/cd0a or mount -t
cd9660 /dev/cd0a it works.  I have included a copy of my /etc/fstab which
has not been modified since the install.  Any ideas?

Here's the output from dmesg;
