Sounds like /dev/cdrom is symlinked to the wrong "real" device.
What device is your CDROM? Probably hdc or hdd?
hda = primary master
hdb = primary slave
hdc = secondary master
hdd = secondary slave
Try mount /dev/hd? /mnt
Once you get it working, re-link your /dev/cdrom to the right device:
ln -s /dev/hd? /dev/cdrom
