    Automount needs /etc/auto.master and /etc/auto.misc setting up, then
    "chkconfig autofs on" and "rcautofs start". "ls /media/dvd" or whatever
    devices you setup will then be mounted and displayed.

    # Sample auto.master file
    # This is an automounter map and it has the following format
    # key [ -mount-options-separated-by-comma ] location
    # For details of the format look at autofs(5).
    /media /etc/auto.misc

    cdrom -fstype=auto,ro :/dev/cdrom
    dvd -fstype=auto,ro :/dev/dvd
