| Code: | | mount: mount point /mnt/cdrom does not exist. |
just means that the appropriate directory hasn't been created. Try
| Code: | mkdir /mnt/cdrom
mount /mnt/cdrom |
and all will be right with the world. 
Note that you'll have to
before you can eject the disc when you are done. |

Tried that and no go this is what that says.
mkdir: cannot create directory '/mnt/cdrom': No such file or directory.

Hmmm. I would think that /mnt would already exist, but try
then the other 2 steps from the previous post. |
