What did you use as the cmd line to mount?
.xinitrc goes in your home dir to run xwin.

After installation, I tried accessing the /cdrom directory and got an error message saying permission denied, I was logged in as root at the time so I saw this is a problem.  I then tried editing /etc/fstab to see if changing the device worked.  But I've tried all the devices that I thought might work.  During bootup, I get a line that says wcd0 - 4168km/s etc. etc.  I assume this is the cd drive, so I tried editing fstab to use both wcd0a and wcd0c, neither of which work.
