I don't know why you were asked to manually mount your cdrom (it was done by dselect as far as I can tell), but anyhow, just start dselect on any virtual console you like (by typing dselect as root on the shell), you'll get a menu, the first will be access, you've already mounted your cd so choose "mounted" (or something that looks like it, I can't recall exactly). After that when you're in the menu choose update...
PS. If somewhere along the dselect way you have to give a path where you'be mounted your cd just say: /cdrom PPS There is no need to mount a cdrom ro, since a cdrom is per definition (Compact Disk READ ONLY Memory, ro means read only) read only.
