In Windoze 95 I can take out and put in CDs at will. In Linux it appears
that I have to mount and umount each CD. So I have setup an alias to do
both of these. I have two questions.

1. An Alias seem to only last for the session.,  Can I put them into a
script file that will load every time I log on?  If, so where should this
file go and from where should it be executed?

2. Is there a way to emulate the way the CD functions in Windoze 95. (At
the moment, this is a single user machine but I plan to use it as a server
when I climb further up the learning curve.)
