Ah! I think I've figured it out. My apologies for the
reading-comprehension problem earlier. ;)

What I believe to be the problem is that your DISK * 90 95 entry comes
before the /mnt entry. That could be a bum guess, but I think it's the
most likely. FYI, here is my DEFAULT section:

DEFAULT
        # These are the built-in defaults.
        UP      1h
        LOAD    5.0 10.0
        DISK    %^/cdrom.* IGNORE
        DISK    %^/mnt.* IGNORE
        DISK    * 90 95
        MEMPHYS 100 101
        MEMSWAP 50 80
        MEMACT  90 97

I don't know if all of the punctuation is necessary if you're looking
specifically for one name of a filesystem, but I can tell you that mine
works (and handles /mnt/cdrom, or things like Solaris' /cdrom/cdrom0/s0,
etc.).
