mounting a dvdrw

["Fred J." <phddas@yahoo.com>]

Hi

I am missing dvdrw in my / dir, however I got cdrom which is link to
/media/cdrom
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 2006-03-19 03:46 cdrom -> media/cdrom

but my fstab does not have media/cdrom but rather /media/cdrom0 and 1.

here is my #fstab
****************************************************************
!# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
#
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/hdb1 / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/hdb9 /home ext3 defaults 0 2
/dev/hdb8 /tmp ext3 defaults 0 2
/dev/hdb5 /usr ext3 defaults 0 2
/dev/hdb6 /var ext3 defaults 0 2
/dev/hdb7 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/hdc /media/cdrom0 iso9660 ro,user,noauto 0 0
/dev/hdd /media/cdrom1 iso9660 ro,user,noauto 0 0
/dev/fd0 /media/floppy0 auto rw,user,noauto 0 0

when I need to mount/umount the dvdrw I have to do
#mount /dve/hdd or #mount /media/cdrom1

I would like to do
#mount /dvdrw
do I make a symlink in my root dir like this then
#ln -s /dev/hdd /dvdrw

?

thanks
