Mounting dev/cdrom


I have managed to install Redhat 7.2 on a Petium 133 System with SCSI devices. The only problem now is that when I bring up the server, I am unable to mount the SCSI CDROM. The command I am issueing is mount /dev/scd1 /mnt/cdrom. I have tried /dev/scd2, /dev/scd3 etc without success. When I issue a lsmod command, I can see all the relevant scsi drivers loaded. Can anyone shed some light on this problem.

Unless you've made a few typos, you're using the wrong labels. The correct designations for SCSI drives would be sda, sdb, sdc, sde, etc.
