Mr. Smalbro:
Disregard most of my previous response to you.... Mascarasnake was right
and I was wrong:

Okay -- Mascaranarinaba-snake is right and I am wrong. Your CD-ROM is in
"/mnt/cdrom", not "/dev/cdrom" like I said, and you have to "mount" it
first as Maalox-snake described. I completely spaced out on that one,
and you should disregard my answer.
At least, I hope I was right about how to "cd" to a directory! :-)
All hail the Great Manchild-Snake! :-)
Best wishes,
Clint
