vMA assistance

I am trying to setup PCNS on teh vMA and i am running into a snag.  I am trying to mount the CD so I can install the software but i'm getting Permission Denied.  I am logged in with vi-amin  and I changed the permissions on the pount point (sudo chmod 666 /mnt/cdrom) but i get the same error.  Can anyone help me get by this.  I'm not much of a linux person.  Any help is appreciated.  Thanks

run sudo -s, enter your password, and then you can mount.

Seem to need another push on mounting a cdrom on the vMA.  I'm not much of a linux command line guy.  Anyone want to give me a push??  The attachment is what my cdrom had in the VM setings.  Any help is appreciated.  Trying to get the PCNS setup and configured.  Thanks again.
