Do you think I'm not able to iterate other a set of values?

Imagine I've got a cd in the driver, and I don't know how many sessions are there in the cd, but I know that the cd contains, in one of the session, a file I want to read. What I was asking here is if there is a way to know how many session are present, thus to easily iterate without making my program to try mounting the cd and stopping at the first fail, to reach the file I'm looking for. I'd like to do this in bash. >Not really quite sure what you are trying to ask us here. If you don't know the answer, please don't post.
