My /etc/fstab looks like this:

proc            /proc           proc    defaults        0       0
/dev/hda8   /                                     ext3    
defaults,errors=remount-ro 0       1
/dev/hda6   none                              swap    sw              
0       0
/dev/hda5   /mnt/debian                  ext3    auto,ro 0       1
/dev/hda7   /mnt/data                      ext3    auto        0       2
/dev/hda1   /mnt/windows               ntfs    auto    0       0
/dev/hda8   /mnt/extra                     ext3    defaults        0       0
/dev/hdc     /media/cdrom                iso9660 ro,user,noauto  0       0
/dev/hdb    /media/dvd                     iso9660 ro,user,noauto  0       0
/dev/sde1   /media/usbstick vfat     rw,user,noauto  0       0

So there is actually no big difference between the cdrom entry and the 
usb entry. The option you mentioned is also set; otherwise the automatic 
mount of CDs don't work either. But automatic mount of CDs work fine. 
Are there other important configuration to be done? Must I install a 
certain package?
