/dev/cdrom is always a link.  Do you have SCSI or IDE?  If you have SCSI, it
should be a link to /dev/scd0, /dev/scd0 being a _b_lock special device with
major 11 and minor 0.

If you use IDE, it should be a link to /dev/hd[bcd], whereever you attached
the cdrom.  These are again _b_lock special devices, and hdb is major 3
minor 64, hdc is 22, 0 and hdd is 22, 64.
