It should mount automatically. What does your /ect/fstab file say? It 
should have a line like:

/dev/cdrom              /mnt/cdrom              iso9660	noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 
0/dev/cdrom              /mnt/cdrom              iso9660 
noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0.

If it does, you should be able to right click desktop icon, dunno how to 
do that on a desktop (it's F12 on my PowerBook), and choose mount.

You can also try manually mounting it from a termianl window. As root run:

mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom

Just make sure you a a directory in /mnt named cdrom; otherwise you can 
just use /mnt.

If all goes well just cd /mnt/cdrom or /mnt depending on where you 
mounted to.

Hope this helps
