If OS/2 installed successfully, then I think that all the files you need 
should be on the same floppy as config.sys (disk 1?). To use this drive you 
basically need three lines in config.sys:

IFS=C:\OS2\CDFS.IFS
BASEDEV=SBCD2.ADD
DEVICE=C:\OS2\OS2CDROM.DMD

SBCD2.ADD must be in either the root directory, or \OS2. That should give 
you access the the CD and put a nice little CD icon in your drives folder.

BTW, for some reason OS/2 thinks I've got 4 CD drives when I do this, anyone 
know why?
