Mount CD-ROM in Linux

To mount a CD-ROM in Linux, you will need to follow these steps:

1. Insert the CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive.

2. Determine the device name of the CD-ROM drive. Run the lsblk command to list the block devices on your system. Look for the device name of the CD-ROM drive. It will be listed under the NAME column. The device name will typically be in the form /dev/cdrom or /dev/sr0.

3. Create a mount point for the CD-ROM. A mount point is a directory where the CD-ROM will be mounted. Create a directory for the mount point using the mkdir command. For example:

mkdir /mnt/cdrom

4. Mount the CD-ROM. Use the mount command to mount the CD-ROM on the mount point you created. For example:

mount /dev/sr0 /mnt/cdrom

Replace /dev/sr0 with the actual device name of your CD-ROM drive.

The CD-ROM will now be mounted on the /mnt/cdrom mount point. You can access the files on the CD-ROM by navigating to this directory.

5. Unmount the CD-ROM when you are finished. When you are finished accessing the files on the CD-ROM, you should unmount it to prevent data loss. Use the umount command to unmount the CD-ROM:

umount /mnt/cdrom
