/dev/cdrom is the name of the file that is a symbolic link to /dev/scdx.
It is in the /dev directory and called cdrom. The names tell you where
they are because. Because they start with /, they are absolute paths.
If they started with just a directory, or with ./ they would be relative
paths from the current directories.
You make the link with:
ln -s /dev/scdx /dev/cdrom
(Replace x with the correct number...)
