You can mount it any place you like.  Just mkdir the place where you like to 
mount it and make sure that there's a matching entry in /etc/fstab.  I 
personally like to mount it on /E , so I did

	mkdir /E

and my /etc/fstab contains

	/dev/acd0c              /E              cd9660  ro,noauto       0       0


(If your CDROM is not ATAPI, then the physical device would differ.)
