cd rom device

Hi All,

I would like to mount a cd device on a sun using the mount command.
But i do not know what device the cd drive is ie /dev/sr0 or /dev/cdrom0 bla bla. I need this info to run the command...
mount /dev/blah /mnt/cdrom

so i can access the cd. but i dont know what blah in the above is.
(I have tried looking in /dev but cant see any obvious possibilities)

Is there an obvious way to find this out?

Many thanks

Rkap

ps. I also did a probe-ide at the ok prompt and this picked up the ATAPI cd drive as device 2
