Here is the result of doing this on my computer with the Psyche documentation 
CD mounted in one of my drives.

[gerry@gstpc gerry]$ ls /mnt/cdrom
about.html  figs           LICENSE                readme.txt  RPM-GPG-KEY
autorun     index-en.html  online-resources.html  RedHat      SRPMS
css         index.html     README                 RH-DOCS     TRANS.TBL
[gerry@gstpc gerry]$ cp /mnt/cdrom/index.html /tmp
[gerry@gstpc gerry]$ ls /tmp
index.html       kde-root       orbit-gerry 
[gerry@gstpc gerry]$

This may not be of much help, but you can see it is not a generic problem. 
Are you using /mnt/cdrom as the name of the directory you are trying to copy from?
