Ok...This is a start. Now, as I said, before, type "ls -l /dev/cdrom" The resulting output should end with "-> /dev/hdc" If it does not, then, as root, issue the following command: ln -s /dev/hdc /dev/cdrom Then, once that's done, you should be able to "mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom"

/dev/cdrom should actually be a symlink that points to an actual device. Depending on whether you have an IDE or SCSI CD drive, the actual device would either be /dev/hdX or /dev/scdX, where "X" is the actual device number...hdX would be an IDE drive, scdX would be a SCSI device. At a command
