Auto Mount programs may use the volume information
to define a mount point. If the CD volume label is 
"Digi" then the mount point may be /cdrom/digi

UNIX
To list descriptions of devices:
AIX: 
lscfg
    
HPUX: - Make sure you have administrator privileges and 
your PATH includes /usr/sbin
ioscan -funC disk

If you see DISPLAY permission errors when running the CD,
you may want to verify your DISPLAY variable is set. 
To set the DISPLAY variable:
DISPLAY=localhost:0.0; export DISPLAY
 
 
 
AND/OR
xhost +localhost
Identify the mount-directory.
Some common pre-existing mount points:
/mnt/cdrom    /cdrom
Or create your own:    
mkdir /mnt/mycdrom
HPUX - Check to see if pfs is running
ps -ef | grep pfs
If not, start the daemons:
pfs_mountd&; pfsd&
*HPUX When finished, leave the CD directory and pfs_umount
cd
pfs_umount mount-directory
(If you inadvertenly use 
umount
 instead of 
pfs_umount
, kill the 
pfs daemons to remove the CD-ROM.)
