Hi Garry,
I tried this and didn't get any further. I commented out the last
line in /etc/rmmount.conf, then ran:
# /etc/init.d/volmgt stop
# rm -rf /cdrom/*
# ls -la /cdrom
total 4
drwxr-xr-x 2 root nobody 512 Apr 18 17:30 .
drwxr-xr-x 23 root root 1024 Apr 13 13:54 ..
# /etc/init.d/volmgt start
volume management starting.
# ls -laR /cdrom
/cdrom:
total 8
drwxr-xr-x 3 root nobody 512 Apr 18 17:31 .

# tail /etc/rmmount.conf

action rmscsi action_filemgr.so
# This following line prevents reading CDs

# mount * hsfs udfs ufs -o nosuid
The behavior hasn't changed. It still tries to read the CD and gets
as far as the label, creates a mount point and a symlink, and then
stops.
Did I forget something? Does there need to be an entry in /etc/vfstab?
Thanks,
