Description of problem:
When a DVD is mounted on a CD/DVD drive, an hourly report of disk full
is generated for the DVD device

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
1.4-2

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
You need a system provided with CDROM/DVD unit
1. Insert a DVD in the drive
2. wait for next hour to tick, the give a couple of minutes of margin
3. login as root on a command line terminal
    

Actual Results:  check mail: you'll get a message from
Disk.Usage.Monitor stating that /dev/cdrom (/mnt/cdrom) is 100% full


Expected Results:  you shouldn't get any message. A DVD is full by
definition.

Additional info:

On the script /etc/cron.hourly/diskcheck are excluded from the check
the filesystems "none" "tmpfs" and "iso9660" but the "udf" filesystem
of DVD is not excluded.
