Hi!
Do you know which controller your drive is connected to?
If it is...
... at the primary controller, slave position: try "mount /dev/hdb
/cdrom"
... at the secondary controller, master position: try "mount /dev/hdc
/cdrom"
... at the secondary controller, slave position: try "mount /dev/hdd
/cdrom"
... at the scsi controller: try "mount /dev/sr0 /cdrom"
You can also try out all those possibilities. Or you press shift+PgUp
(several times) after having booted, so you can see what the kernel
has printed out (and usually also a message about detected cdrom's);
you come back down by pressing shift+PgDn.
Cheers,
Stephan
