HP CDROMS must be mounted using pfs_mount - the instructions should be in the cover notes of the CD.

If not here they are :

use vi and add an entry to /etc/pfs_fstab <device_file> <mount_point> <filesystem_type> <translation_method> /dev/dsk/c5t2d0 /SD_CDROM pfs-rrip xlat=unix 0

su root

nohup /usr/sbin/pfs_mountd &

nohup /usr/sbin/pfsd &

/usr/sbin/pfs_mount /SD_CDROM

logout of root

cd /SD_CDROM

ls -al gives lower case listing of files
