When I try and mount my cdrom or my floppy I get an invalid super
block error.
 
I use the following command:
 
mount  /dev/acd0c /cdrom

Try mount -t cd9660 /dev/acd0c /cdrom, since cdroms aren't usually
written in FreeBSD's UFS filesystem format.

How do I correct this error so that I may use my cdrom?

You need to specify the filesystem type, ie:

# mount -t cd9660 /dev/acd0c /cdrom

Check if there's an entry in /etc/fstab. If there is, you should be
able to do:

# mount /cdrom
