Well, normaly you just need to type �mount /cdrom� oder �mount /mnt/cdrom� and you can access to content of your CD in the directory /cdrom or /mnt/cdrom. If that fails, it would be usefull if you could gave us some more information, e.g. the output of �grep -i cd /etc/fstab�, �ll /dev/cdrom*�, �dmesg|grep -i cd� and if you knew, where your CD-ROM drive is attached, it would be nice to know, too. If it works, and your CD contains normal Debian packages you should be able to install them with �dpkg -i <filename>�. If you mean other software packages, there is no general rule how to install them, but in most cases, ther in an installation document. Yours sincerely, Alexander
