Which device is my CDROM?



<flushed with embarrasement>

Hi all
	I am just trying to use my cdrom for the first time.  I cant seem to
find which device it is.  My machine is a Digital Alphaserver 1000
(Mikasa).  I have tried to mount on all the sd* deviced up to number
one. ie:
mount -t iso9660 /dev/sda /cdrom
mount -t iso9660 /dev/sda1 /cdrom
mount -t iso9660 /dev/sdb /cdrom
mount -t iso9660 /dev/sdb1 /cdrom
mount -t iso9660 /dev/sdc /cdrom
mount -t iso9660 /dev/sdc1 /cdrom
mount -t iso9660 /dev/sdd /cdrom
mount -t iso9660 /dev/sdd1 /cdrom
etc.  until
mount -t iso9660 /dev/sdh /cdrom
mount -t iso9660 /dev/sdh1 /cdrom

is there a way to find out where my cdrom is located?  I don't have a
device called /dev/cdrom like I did in intel world.
