invalid block device still continues

Scott -

Not sure what you are doing wrong with your cdrom, but -- The proper file
system type is iso9660, not msdos. However that should have worked okay
when you omitted the file system type.

You may or may not have the "/dev/hdb" correct. You have two IDE
controllers: the primary controller handles /dev/hda and /dev/hdb, and the
secondary controller handles /dev/hdc and /dev/hdd. The two master devices
are /dev/hda and /dev/hdc, and the two slave devices are /dev/hdb and
/dev/hdd. So, assuming your hard disk on the primary master (/dev/hda)
that leaves three other possibilities for where your cdrom is connected.
