here it says 2017
# ls -al /media/
total 16
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Jul 9 2020 .
drwxr-xr-x 27 root root 4096 Feb 28 17:31 ..
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 Jul 17 2017 cdrom -> cdrom0
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jul 17 2017 cdrom0
but the system was installed many many moons before this date. I assume it
was created once when /media become the place for automatically mounting

I am still not sure if it was created automatically though.
