However, that's not much of an example, as there's no result. The
other posters that tried to help you pasted exactly what they typed,
beginning with "mount", and exactly what came back. You never followed
their example, but just said "Oh, it works now". So frankly, I'm
thinking pilot error: maybe you there never was a CD mounted on
/mnt/cd0, or maybe you typed "find /dev/cd0a ..."? Whatever it was,
I'm sure you'll figure it out, in time.
