[lug] mounting cdrom

[Robert George Mayer]

Hugh -

Order is important here.

user,exec,noauto,ro

should work.


Note that setting user sets: noexec, nosuid, nodev

even if you have set the opposite earlier in the list.

'Cause when I just tried testing this I gave

user,exec,noauto,user,ro

and it was set to noexec.
