Make sure that it is indeed plugged in and determine where on the bus it is. hda = primary channel master hdb = primary channel slave hdc = secondary channel master and hdd = secondary channel slave. Then try changing your /etc/fstab line for the cdrom to: /dev/hdx/mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,users,ro 0 0 where x = the letter b,c,or d from above.
