Just a question ...
I already have installed Debian/GNU Linux many times and each time the same
question occurs to me ... why is it that the CD-ROM device name cannot be
auto-detected in Linux as it is in Windows (and maybe then automounted if
it contains a disk) ?
Sorry for the Q. this has bugged me for a long time and this seems an
appropriate thread to add to.
