Try cd instead of acd. The acd interface has been "deprecated"
in favour of "SCSI over ATA" for optical devices (including
ATAPI CD and DVD drives).

	# mount_cd9660 -e /dev/cd0 /mnt

In case the extended attributes cause problems, try first
without using them in the "normal way":

	# mount -t cd9660 -o ro /dev/cd0 /mnt

Permission problems should not count here.

Also make sure it's really an ISO-9660 file system:

	% file -s /dev/acd0 
	/dev/acd0: ISO 9660 CD-ROM filesystem data '0110241307 

This example from a 8.2 system where the acd subsystem is still
being used. :-)

Proper cabling? Drive and media not covered with dust? ;-)
