Hi,

try

mount /mnt/cdrom
or 
mount /media/cdrom
or insert the CD and type 
mount -a

Anyone of the commands should do the work.

You are trying to mount the device node itself. Insted try

mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
or
mount /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom

These are essentially the same commands given above.

Warm Regards
Suresh
