The man pages says only: iso9660 is available, so I used this one.
In any case, I tried it to see what it does:
# mount -t iso99660 -o ro /dev/cdrom /media/cd
mount: unknown filesystem type 'iso99660'
mount: maybe you meant 'iso9660'?

See below... there are TWO CD/DVD devices!

Yes, no /dev/cdrom and since I have a CD device and a
CD/DVD device, this is what I see:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2009-10-06 06:49 /dev/cdrom2 -> sr0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2009-10-06 06:49 /dev/cdrom6 -> sr1
Is the reason I have no /dev/cdrom because there is no possible
way to determine which device will have /dev/cdrom?
