acessing /mnt/ kills programs

It's started from:
/etc/rc2.d
/etc/rc3.d
/etc/rc4.d
/etc/rc5.d
and stopped at:
/etc/rc0.d
/etc/rc1.d
/etc/rc6.d

You can remove it with: update-rc.d -f autofs remove
and put it back with: update-rc.d autofs defaults

great thanks - is update-rc.d the standard method of altering rc.d files rather than altering them directly? I will give it a go this evening....

The standard debian way, yes. You can also use Kmenu -> System -> SysV-init editor to do this if you prefer a GUI.
Personally I prefer update-rc.d, just fired up sysv-init editor and it asked what OS I use

There should be a way to set automounter so that it will automount only the CD drive & not the floppy. This would be an automounter setup, try man autofs for starter.
