I presume that you have success fully completed the installation and now
want to access your CD-ROM?  To do this you need to 'mount' your CD.  This
can be done by 'mount iso9660 /dev/sdb? /mnt/cdrom' where sdb? is the drive
that your cd is. I'm not familiar with SCSI under Linux and only a newbie
myself.  To have it mounted on boot, edit your /etc/fstab file.

Good luck (and thanks to those who have recently told me a similar answer),
 Nathan.
