Simple Unix question. How to look and copy files in my CD drive?

Question

I am on AIX 5.3 and need to copy and file from CD to a /home/mystuff folder.
How can I do that?

Answer 1

You need to make sure the CD is mounted first.

That can be done in the /etc/checklist file or use the mount command. Once mounted, then you can copy the files just like any other directory.
