dvd drive keep mounting incorrectly


running Slackware 13.1

Whenever I insert a dvd or a cd, it automatically mounts to /media/[name], Like for example, the DVD I have in now mounts to /media/TBC3.2.0 (TBC3.2.0 is the name of the disc itself).

I'm needing this to mount to a regular point like /media/cdrom0 or whatever. How can I fix this?

Try adding a line like this to your /etc/fstab where /dev/sr0 is the optical drive device and /mnt/cdrom is your desired mount point.
Code:
/dev/sr0           /mnt/cdrom       auto        noauto,users,ro  0   0
