Are you sure your CD-ROM drive is at /dev/hda? Usually that's a hard
drive. I'd try /dev/hdc or hdd. Or an appropriate symlink:

ls /dev/cd*

What, if anything, does /etc/fstab have to say?

Things have changed since RH9. You may need to create a mount
point. The new custom is to put it in /media instead of /mnt, so:

mkdir /media/cdrom

then pick an appropriate device to mount, e.g.:

mount /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom
