You don't have to (and actually can't) mount a blank CD before burning it.
Simply, without mounting the CD, execute the burncd command as has been
told you here. After the burn process finishes, you can mount the CD and
test it. However, burning to CDs currently mounted or trying to mount
blank CDs is probably not something that will work.
