Question #76543 on Ubuntu changed:

    Status: Open => Needs information

alvare requested for more information:
Hi!
First of all, how do you know it doesn't detects the drive at boot? Ubuntu or the BIOS?
It may be a hardware problem.
So try with this command:

sudo lshw | less

And search for the drive (if you find it post some of the output).

Then in the terminal input this command:

$ sudo mount /dev/cdrom /mnt

You can also try with this devices instead of /dev/cdrom:
/dev/cdrw, /dev/dvd, /dev/dvdrw, /dev/scd0, /dev/sr0
