/etc/fstab mount issue
I have a virtual machine with Redhat installed .
I am trying to link CD/DVD Drive 1 to /media/cdrom1 and CD/DVD Drive 0 to /media/cdrom0

I tried making these changed in /etc/fstab by adding the below line to it
Code:
/dev/sr0 /media/cdrom0 iso9660         user,noauto,exec,utf8       0  0
/dev/sr1 /media/cdrom1 iso9660         user,noauto,exec,utf8       0  0

But even after a reboot i see CD/DVD Drive 1 assigned to /media/cdrom0

Any ideas where I am going wrong ?


Thanks in advance

What does CD/DVD Drive 0/1 mean?
Why are you sure, that your DVD Drive 0 is /dev/sr0?

CD/DVD Drive is the drive in the virtual machine .

Code:
cat /proc/mounts

gives the following result

Code:
/dev/sr1 /media/cdrom0 iso9660 ro,nosuid,relatime 0 0
/dev/sr0 /media/cdrom1 iso9660 ro,nosuid,relatime 0 0

I have 2 different ISOs mounted on Drive 0 and Drive 1.So I know which is mounted where
