How is the cdrom you are trying to use attached to the system? Is it an IDE ATAPI CDROM or is it scsi? If it is scsi, you may need to use a different device name such as /dev/scd0c. (I am assuming this is where scsi cdroms are at, but I dont have scsi on my box). Also, in the /dev dir if you do 'ls -l cdrom' you will see that it is a symlink to the real device.
