I have been having great fun burning coasters and wonder how I may check which disk is blank and which contains info. I can I suppose go over to the enemy and use my computer and the drive letter to see what is there. What is the equivalent in Puppy ?

How do I tell what is on my CD/DVD
Many thanks trapster.
You had me worried there ! Between you asking me to mount the drive and someone earlier looking for steaming videos.
I am much relieved to say that I found pmount and that the forum in not sinking into the depth of depravity.
That saves me a lot of messing about and makes life easy.
Once again thanks

I think the easiest way to check a lot of cd discs is with Rox the file manager.
Click on /mnt/cdrom, the mounting, unmounting, viewing and ejecting options are built into Rox.
-------------
However, in order for it to work, you will (probably) need to add the following line to /etc/fstab
/dev/hd?* /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,ro
OR
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,ro
* where ?* is the actual Linux letter of your cd drive, I don't know what it is.
If you don't know the letter then run probedisk at the command prompt, and it will show you.
