If there are entries for the name of the link and the mount point displayed, the CD-ROM is integrated into the system. Integration into the system means that a symbolic link (e.g., /dev/cdrom, /dev/dvd, etc.) to the device name (e.g., /dev/hdc, /dev/sr0, etc.) is present, an entry in /etc/fstab exists, a subdirectory below /media is present, and possibly a kernel command-line parameter is provided (for IDE devices)."
