[SOLVED] Cdrom device possibly missing?

Hello,

I am following the HPUX 11.31 install/update guide and I am trying to install "Update-UX" from the installation media. I put the CD into the drive, and I am trying to mount the device. The instructions state:
Code:
Find the DVD-ROM device file name:
ioscan -C disk -f -n -k | more
A typical device name is /dev/dsk/c1t2d0

however I do not see a CDROM device in the results:
Code:
[root@hpux04: /]# ioscan -C disk -f -n -k

                          /dev/dsk/c0t7d0s3   /dev/rdsk/c0t7d0s3

The machine is an HP Integrity rx2660. Is one of these devices the cdrom drive? I believe it is supposed to say CD or DVD in the description.

edit: solved. I had to mount the UsbScsiAdaptor as the cdrom device.
