One thing that should be highlighted about the mount / umount
commands is you should be in a directory other than the one that
you are trying to mount / umount. If not, you might receive a
"busy" message. (At least that is what I learned from my brief
experience with RH 5.1.)

You must mount the cdrom or floppy using 'mount' first. After using it,
you must 'umount' it. To mount the cdrom, try 'mount /dev/cdrom
/mnt/cdrom'. To unmount, try 'umount /mnt/cdrom'. You can get more info by
man mount.
