Just installed Debian

Hi,

Just installed Debian and am trying to use apt-get.  I want to configure
it to use my CDs, but I need to mount the disk first.  The command I
used many years ago was mount /dev/hd? /dev/cdrom - however this is not
working.  My CD (I think judging by messages) is getting assigned to
/dev/hdc.  What is the best way to mount it?  Also, is there a decent
front-end which allows me to see packages and search accordingly?  I
only have the base system on now, and wondered if there was a way of
installing more common text apps like Mutt, Lynx etc?

I used the Debian CD on the Speakup site - the Sarge I386 ISO.

Thanks.
Andrew.
