I thought ro for readonly and rw for > read+write. My cd-rom device is a cd-writer.
Yes, but writing to it is done through different mechanisms. In case of writing ISO images to CD-R(W) media, this is done with cdrecord, which accesses the hardware directly. In case of packet writing to CD-RW, which enables you to use the CD-RW media like a harddisk, you have to use another device (/dev/pktcdvd/<name>). So for both cases, specifying rw here is not completely wrong, but useless, since cdroms will allways be mounted ro anyway. HTH...
