My customer runs a small auto repair shop, they use vender supplied software for computer based repair guides. What I have is 2 DVD-ROMs, both contain a data DVD. I would just copy the data to the HD if they didn't update every month. Now here is the problem. Is there a way so that I don't have to issue mount and umount commands so that my customer can just switch the DVD's himself. Is there some automount service? Thanks
