What I mean is that I can mount and open the files on my data CD by typing:

#mount /dev/hdc -t iso9660 /media/cdrecorder

Then I can cd to the /media/cdrecorder directory and see and manipulate 
my subdirectories and files.

If I try to access my data CD using the File Manager as Root, it will 
not work (I get a crash sound) UNTIL I first mount it in the console as 
above. Then, after mounting it, I can access my files either in the 
console (as above) or by using the File Manager as Root.
