I hope wou meant 'ln' and not 'ls'

the procedure should be more something like:

mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /your_prefered_directory

or use the fstab file (do man fstab and man mount)

I assume that the proper driver is already compiled in you kernel, otherwise
you will need to re-compile the kernel with the needed drivers in it.
