cdrom mount problem !

Friends,
	Sometimes(not always) when I mount my cdroms I get following
messages........

[root@konark /root]# mount /dev/hdb /mnt/cdrom
ATAPI device hdb:
  Error: Unit attention -- (Sense key=0x06)
  Not ready to ready transition, medium may have changed -- (asc=0x28,
ascq=0x00)
  The failed "Test Unit Ready" packet command was:
  "00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 "
mount: block device /dev/hdb is write-protected, mounting read-only
[root@konark /root]# 

and sometimes I gets mounted swiftly but when I do "ls" or "ls -l" I get

??????.???      RedHat??  
and junk similar to this. 

My m/c configuration is
Pentium I	on  RedHat 6.0  with a compiled kernel.


Can anybody  comment in this regard ?
