Question drives? mounting? /mnt empty...


could someone please explain how I can somehow setup or <install> even, a cd rom drive, i am a long time simple-minded windows user coming to Mandrakesoft 9.1 and am hoping for a explanation of every process of doing this. I think i may have mounted the drives correctly but am not too sure just wtf Im doing, please help
