This is what I get:

/dev/hdc1 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro)
proc on /proc type proc (rw)
sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw)
devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)
tmpfs on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw)
/dev/hdd1 on /home type ext3 (rw)
usbfs on /proc/bus/usb type usbfs (rw)
/dev/hda on /media/cdrom1 type iso9660 (ro,noexec,nosuid,nodev,user=michael)

Should I assume that the last line is my pertainent information here
with my Knoppix 4.0.1 dvd in the drive? If that means that I should
have the player reading from /dev/hda, then I've already done that.
Unless I straight-up did it wrong. --which is admittedly possible.

I'm not picking my nose.  I'm pulling things out of it.
