Assuming that you actually did check that /sys is mounted (in other
words, it really does contain, among other things, a "block" directory)
it's probably that "hdd" just doesn't exist on your system. The command
in the book is just an example - replace "hdd" with whatever your CD-ROM
drive would be - probably hdc or sr0 - or just see what else is in
/sys/block.
