Trustix - No cdrom


I need to mount a cdrom to copy some files off of it but theres no cdrom or floppy devices found on my pc. Any idea what i need to do to make trustix see them?

Theres no sign of either in fstab?

Is the CDROM an IDE device?
Does the output of dmesg show a CDROM being recognized?

dmesg | grep CD (Be sure to capitalize CD)

What about your floppy drive? Does /dev/fd0 exist?
