I've reincluded it, so take a look above. Unless there've been devices
called "mnt" manually added to the /dev directory, they don't exist and
his method of operation isn't going to work.
Should be more like:
/mnt/fd0 /mnt/floppy supermount .......
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom supermount .......
/dev/cdrom2 /mnt/cdrom2 supermount .......
