The file system type and options used (-o and -V flag for mount command) are those found in /etc/cdromd.conf file or the default ones: "-Vcdrfs -oro" for a CD-ROM and "-Vudfs -oro" or "-Vcdrfs -oro" for DVD-ROM.
| -h or -? | Displays the command usage message. |
| -q | Specifies silent mode: Doesn't print any information or error message. |
| DeviceName | Specifies the name of the device. |
