I for one cannot protest the recent M.T.A. fare hike and the
accompanying promises that this would in no way improve service. For
the transit system, as it now operates, has hidden advantages that
can't be measured in monetary terms.

Personally, I feel that it is well worth 75 cents or even $1 to have
that unimpeachable excuse whenever I am late to anything: "I came by
subway." Those four words have such magic in them that if Godot should
someday show up and mumble them, any audience would instantly
understand his long delay.

Hi there,
it's right! You must set the sysctl vfs.usermount=1, but you also have to
assure that the user you want to mount the cdrom owns the mountpoint,
tipically, as root you should type:
chown <user> /cdrom

Hope this helps,

Cheer,
