Bug Description
In the Computer place, the CD-ROM drive appears as "CD-ROM" ... in /dev there's
a cdrom -> hdc symlink (created by udev itself, I think) and in /etc/fstab there
is this entry:
/dev/cdrom /cdrom iso9660 ro,users,noauto 0 0
When I put a CD in the drive however, an "hdc" icon appears on the desktop with
an icon that suggests a hard-drive of some kind. It is the CD, but isn't
detected right.
If I unmount that and double-click the icon in Computer, a CD-ROM icon appears
on the desktop named and iconed correctly.

This sounds similar to bug #7975, however, it is not quite the same.
Was this fstab entry really installed that way? On my installation, d-i did not
use the symlinks, but the proper device names (hdc in this case), which will
work correctly.
