You mount it with 'mount /cdrom'. What this line does is:
- mount the device /dev/cdrom (should be a link to /dev/hdb)
- to /cdrom
- with filesystem type iso9660
- read-only, mountable by any user, not automatically at boot
If you want to access the second drive in a similar way, just add another line
like this one with /dev/hdd as the device and another mountpoint (perhaps
/cdrom2 or /mnt/cdrw or whatever, just remember to create the directory).
