• If your server is running the current version of the operating system,
use a command similar to the following example:
# mount -rd /dev/disk/cdrom0c /mnt
The previous example mounts a CD-ROM drive that is device 0 on
the mount point /mnt. If your drive is a different device, substitute
the correct device name. The mount point does not have to be /mnt.
See Section 1.3 if you do not know the CD-ROM drive’s device name.
• If your server is running an earlier version of the operating system,
use a command similar to the following example:
# mount -rd /dev/rz4c /mnt
The previous example uses a CD-ROM drive that is unit 4 and
specifies /mnt as the mount point. If your drive is a different unit,
substitute the device special file name for that unit.
See Section 1.3 if you do not know the CD-ROM drive’s device name.
