When I call up a list of SCSI devices, this is what I get:

I offer this to preface the question: should I try to
mount the cd burner as /dev/sda2 or /dev/sda1?

Of course, when I try, I get this:
  [root at localhost mnt]# mount /dev/sda2
  mount: can't find /dev/sda2 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab

Now I can add a line to fstab listing /dev/sdaX and point it to
/mnt/cdrom1 with file system iso9660, etc, but somehow I don't
think that's going to help.
