I'm trying to read a Debian CD-ROM. The Dtfile file manager won't automatically mount the CD. Well, I did that in the terminal and can now access the CD in the file manager /media/cdrom/.

There are various ways to browse. I can use cat command to print the text of a filein the terminal or I can drag and drop the icons to the workspace desktop, then close the file manager. The icons on the desktop are temporary links to the CD.

I could just use Caja which mounts and show and opens all necessary viewers at a click of the mouse. But that would not be fun.

There used to be a tool for this called Removable Media Manager that's supposed to work seamlessly with the Dtfile file manager. Can't find it in my setuo. I think it's not there.
