execution of shell scripts from cdrom

[Danny Lathouwers]

Dear community,   I wanted to execute a shell script from /cdrom and it fails with the following message: bash: ./scriptname: Permission denied. The script is executable and is run as root, so should work. Copying the script to ~ works but i really need to run it from /cdrom. Does this have anything to do with ro mounting of the cdrom (removing it from fstab did not help as the write protection is recognized and it is still mounted ro).   What's the problem here ?
