Since I saw the same messages some time ago on this box here too I had
to gooogle for some answers too. 

I found out that in my case I was trying to mount a badly burned CD,
dunno if this is the case here too, have you tried different CD's? 

one of the results of my search I kept, dunno if it helps :-(

!I second this.  I have an old, old cdrom drive that generally works fine
!for small jobs, but will start spitting out errors similar to the OP's

!rip CDs to wav.

The box said Windows, NT or better, so I installed Linux :-)
