But then, the device names are not used for mount points. Whenever I use
'cat /proc/devices' I do not see something like 'cdrecorder' in it. If I
use 'hal-devices', it gets even more cryptical. Could somebody give me a
clue, since I think the mountpoint /media/cdrecorder had been
arbitrarily chosen by somebody and could easily be named something
like /media/place-to-burn-cd-rom?
