Since it's a cdrom which is by its design not always going to be there,
you should use instead:

urpmi.addmedia cdrom1 removable://mnt/cdrom/Mandrake/RPMS with ../base/hdlist.cz

Note that the "with ../base/hdlist.cz" is not required.  It will
generate its own hdlist if you do not give it the path to one.  This
only works for local files and removable media, not for ftp and http.
