you do not say what type of CD drive you are using 
not sure if it is a slackware version of linux either.if it is you need
to create a directory called /var/adm/mount where slackware is mounted
also you need to put a line into your /etc/fstab file like this:
/dev/mcd /var/adm/mount iso9660 ro
this is for a Mitsumi CD onl;y.
when you boot up it will tell you if it recognises your Cd drive.
