I have a CD full of MP3 files that I burned on a Windows box. When I boot up Mandrake linux, I can't seem to browse the CD. How do I successfully play the MP3 files on that CD?

first make sure the drive is mounted. I really haven't used mandrake, but you should be able to easily mount the cdrom drive with a drive manager utility. If you still cannot browse the cd you can try to manually mount it with the command:
mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
or something of that nature. After the cd is mounted, you should be able to access the mp3s.
