For the most common case, you probably have an IDE hard drive and
an IDE ATAPI cdrom. If that is the case, the hard drive is most
likely /dev/hda, and your cdrom is probably /dev/hdb. If you have
different hardware type/configuration like having two hard drives
instead of one, or having a non-atapi cdrom, you'll need to tell
us what kind of hardware you have.
