have you tried mounting by hand to see if you can, what does work?
comment out or delete the line in fstab that you have there for the time 
being, make sure /mnt/cdrom exists and check its permissions, even root can't 
read or write a file it doesn't have permissions for if they are not set - 
the point of root is that it can always set them - which is why sometmes it 
seems that root is locked out of something, then as root try 
#mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdd /mnt/cdrom
or
#mount -t iso9660 /dev/scd0 /mnt/cdrom

that is about as basic a mount command as you can get for a cdrom, the latter 
would be if you are using ide-scsi for the writer, if neither of these work 
then perhaps you have incorrectly configured ide-scsi (i'm guessing wildly 
here)
