Thanks all for the suggestions.  As I looked for what was resetting things I went and 
removed "kudzu"  from the fstab entries.  I also made sure the "modules.conf" file had 
the correct entries.  I turned kudzu to "SAFE=yes".  My sound card now works as well 
as the CD-ROM drive.  I am however getting an additional disk (cdrom1) that references 
the same device but can only be mounted by root.  (this concerns me less than not 
having it work).  Following one suggestion I have stopped kudzu from starting (in 
ntsysv).  This did not stop the additional CDROM drive from showing up and the fstab 
from updating.

After I installed RH 8 I was very impressed.  Unfortunately, things have not stayed 
rosy.  Sound was the first thing to stop working, now whenever I reboot the computer I 
have to jump through all sorts of hoops to be able to mount a CD.  

With not modification the message I get is something like:

"mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/cdrom, or too many mounted 
filesystems (could this be the IDE device where you in fact use ide-scsi so that sr0 
or sda or so is needed?)"

This usually involves editing the" fstab" file (which get overwritten on reboot) from:

/dev/cdrom      /mnt/cdrom      iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro   0       0

to

/dev/cdrom      /mnt/cdrom      iso9660 noauto,user,kudzu,ro    0       0

I then have to deal with the link to the device.  On checking I found that 
"/dev/cdrom" was pointing to "/dev/hdc". This is reset each time I reboot so I have to 
delete the old link and created a new link "dev/cdrom" pointing to "/dev/scd0".

I can then mount the CD ROM.  What am I missing?  Are there some configuration 
settings that need to be changed?

Any help in pointing me in the right direction will be deeply appreciated.

Thanks!
