Most CD's are ISO-9660 compatible, which works on both Linux and the
varieties of Windows. If you use a recent version of Linux and either GNOME or KDE,
then the CD will be mounted automatically when you insert it. IF not, then
just use the command:
mount /mnt/cdrom
If your /etc/fstab is setup correctly the above command will work. If not,
you will have to specify the mount point an filesystem type:
mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
After the CD is mounted, you should be able to open open the image files
using a compatible application. The GIMP can open almost anything.
