I don't have the exact problem, but did have similar ones.  Make sure
you have iso9660 filesystem support (cat /proc/filesystems or something
close to that.)  Make sure you have compiled in block device support
for your particular CDrom setup (cat /proc/devices or something  close to
that.)  I originally thought my CDROM was scsi, but it turned out to be
a proprietary interface (/dev/sbpcd) and had to recompile the kernel
to support it.  Look at the Kernel-HOWTO for more info.

Hope that helps.
