Is CD-ROM auto-type mounting broken in YDL 2.0?

I can't automatically mount a hfs CD-ROM under YDL2.0 even though, my
file type is auto.  I must do it manually.


/dev/hda11              /                       ext2      defaults        1  1
/dev/hda12              swap                    swap      defaults        0  0
/dev/hda9               /mnt/mac                hfs       noauto,user
1 2
/dev/hda10              /mnt/shared             hfs       noauto,user     1
2
/dev/fd0                /mnt/floppy             auto      noauto,user     0
0
/dev/cdrom              /mnt/cdrom              auto      noauto,ro,user  0  0
none                    /proc                   proc      defaults        0  0  none
/proc/bus/usb           usbdevfs  defaults        0  0  none
/dev/pts                devpts  gid=5,mode=620    0  0

The "auto" specified here is only about the filesystem type.
AFAIK, no distros for PPC have the "supermount" utility!

And into the LinuxPPC 2000 Q4 :)
I have installed the YDL 2.0 and the command "auto" in the fstab file no
longer works.

Gosh! I've installed MandrakeLinux for PPC (8.0 Beta1) and it doesn't
work!

BTW... anyone knows why on my Yosemite G3/300 the default kernel goes to
panic?

Roberto,

It worked with LinuxPPC2000 and LinuxPPC2000Q4.

PS.  I am only refering to auto filesystem type.  What did you think I was
refering to?

At the moment I'm getting it work with a SuSE Kernel.
The original Mandrake Kernel hangs with a Kernel Panic after a couple of
seconds.

1. CD-ROM mount needs source <--> source needs CD-ROM mount

I've just ploughed through the entirety of misc,hardware and setup, to no
avail;  I installed Linux from the sbpcd boot disk (as I have a Panasonic
CD-ROM drive hanging off a SoundBlaster-compat. card), and the CD-ROM drive
chugged away happily to give me the OS.  However, my concerns about the size of
everything I was prompted to install made me decide NOT to install the linux
source.  

Now, when I boot up the CD drive cannot be mounted because of 'wrong fs, blah
blah, or other error'.  I interrogated sbpcd.h (I *did* install the includes)
and the setup was incorrect.  Because I can't mount the CD drive I can't get
the source off the CD - re-booting off the boot disk (sbpcd) and trying a
reinstall  from the CD using setup gives a warning that the CD drive can't be
mounted.

Should I delete the linux partition and start from scratch again?  I do really
need to access the CD drive, and I realise now that it is kind of useful to
have the OS source.

Apart from that, it's great having a proper OS on my PC at last!
