if you using a ide cdrw, it will have been maped to a scsi device (because
the cdrw progs only seam to work with scsi)

assuming you are using a ide cdrw

you need to edit /etc/fstab , 
you cdrom should be at the bottom of the list with somthing like
/mnt/cdrom2 /mnt/cdrom2 etc ..... supermount /dev/cdrom2 0 0

you should change the /dev/cdrom2 bit to /dev/scd0, 

umount /mnt/cdrom2

then

mount /mnt/cdrom2

you may also have to restart x, ctrl+alt+backspace.

looking under lothar (start darkconfig and select hardware ....)
the cdrom section should show your cdrw and a scsi device

I have a CD rom and CD RW.. I cannot get a read of the CDRW.

Both Drives are identified correctly, and both have icons on the
desktop.

Any ideas?

Cheers

Andy
