What type of CDROM do you have?  Where does it interface?

Most IDE-attached CDs use this command line:

mount -t cd9660 /dev/wcd0c /mnt

Your CD will appear under /mnt if all went well.

This of course assumes your CD is found in the boot probe. Try running
`dmesg' and see if your CD appears in the list.
