can't acces cdrom

[Joel Hammer]

Here is all it took to get my cdrom mounted without scsi or devfs.

     1. Make the /mnt/cdrom mount point, be sure it is
     permissive.
     2. mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdd /mnt/cdrom

Of course, your cdrom may be on hdb or hdc. I am not sure
how to check this out except by looking at df -h and seeing
what is not mounted or else looking in /var/log/messages
after a reboot.  Trial and error should work.

This seems so simple compared to using scsi and devfs,
you have got to wonder.
