[Oberon] native oberon: how to access cd-rom after mounting

[Frans-Pieter Vonck]

Hello Oberoneurs,


mounting the CD-rom is done with FileSystem.Mount CD ISOFS IDE2
Then the files can be accessed like this
System.Directory CD:apps1.arc


The message from Partitio.Show is:
IDE2#00 1.8MB - (Whole disk)

Greets,
Frans-Pieter
