Peter,

   This is actually easier than MickeySoft, once you understand the relationships.

   First you need to know what device your cd-rom is. ~Normally~, it will be a SCSI device at address 4; and usually, on the first controller. Type

$ Sho dev d

and look for a disk that is write-locked, probably
DKA400. If it is ...

   With the cd in the drive, type

$ Mou/over=id dka400:

then

$ Set Def dka400:[000000]

you are now ready to wander around as on any other RMS volume.
