No, but here's an /etc/fstab line that I use for a CDRW/DVD
/mnt/cdrom /mnt/cdrom supermount
dev=/dev/scd0,fs=iso9660,ro,--,iocharset=iso8859-1 0 0
Then, because devfs is running, I have made the links
ln -s /dev/scd0 /dev/cdrom
for audio playback, and
ln -s /dev/scd0 /dev/dvd
for Xine and fellows.
It works nicely...
