Did you try specifying -t iso9660 ?

So I assume you have one cdrom, but just cat those files (i.e.
driver, model).
Since I still don't know when you last "saw" your drive it is
difficult to help. According to your transcript it is not in
/etc/fstab. But please try the above mounting command.
And please I do read the list, no need to CC: me seperatly.
Greetings
Helge
