Try this...
mount /dev/cdrom /mnt (notice the space between cdrom and /mnt)
I would say if you took another look at the install docs it would say
mount /dev/cdrom /mnt (with the space).
It's probably better to create a sub-directory under /mnt to mount the
cdrom to keep things nice and organized. You can do that by...
mkdir /mnt/cdrom
Then your mount command would become...
mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
You could then add a line to /etc/fstab to make things a little
easier...
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,unhide 0 0
Then you can mount your cdrom with either of these commands...
mount /dev/cdrom
or
mount /mnt/cdrom
To un-mount...
umount /mnt/cdrom (notice that umount only has one "n")
And one last point. Don't post in html. Most Linux MUA's (Mail User
Agent) prefer plain text. Well, at least the better MUA's prefer
plain text. And think of it this way, if you don't post in html your
messages will reduce in size by more than half.
