Mounting CDROM

I ran the commands listed below and it still does not mount.  I looked in
the hardware browser and Linux is listing the cdrom drive as /dev/hdc.  When
I change the etc/fstab file to show dev/hdc I no longer get the fail about
reading etc/fstab on boot up however when I try to mount the drive I get an
incorrect fs or argument error.  Any ideas on how to get Linux to see my CD
as dev/cdrom instead of dev/hdc?  It is an ide cd drive.

----------
# depmod -ae
# insmod cdrom
# modprobe ide-cd

Or upgrade to latest kernel - 2.4.9-?
