Thank you very much indeed for your detailed explanation. Before searching for help I have tried out all options of mount_cd9660, one after the other and all together or so without understanding their meaning. Therefore I obviously missed the working one. `mount_cd9660 -r /dev/acd0 /cdrom' works like a charm. `wine /cdrom/setup.exe' does the job as well, unfortunately with a certain number of `err:' and `fixme:' lines. `cd path/to/VidalCD ; wine VidalCD.exe' starts the application with the same or similar error lines (which is not surprising). The programme does run, but is not really operational: It is too slow, and exiting without problems requires to type `Ctrl+Alt+Backspace' ! No time yet to see whether I am capable to fix something without further help.
