    cdrom mount point

    Not sure where this should be posted ... but installation/upgrades probably makes as much sense as anything....

    Here's the problem: I insert a CD in the drive. It's a 11.10 upgrade disk. The system finds it and mounts it as /media/Ubuntu 11.10 i386

    Now, the update manager launches ... and it's expecting a CD at /media/cdrom.

    So, it craps out with a message about no internet

    I can work around this by manually mounting the cd:

    sudo mount /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom

    and then restarting the update manager.

    Do I have something set up wrong? I've noticed this behaviour when I was trying to do some updates from a DVD using synaptic. Never did figure it out.
