make sure in /etc/fstab that where you are mounting the  cdrom is correct.
it may be mounted at /mnt/cdrom.  try this #mount /mnt/cdrom then #cd
/mnt/cdrom and see what happens.  As far as the answer for moving files, no,
when an OS is initialized, it can only see files that are in the file system
recognized by the os.  Unless you found a way to run two OS's at once.



hope i helped
