  A CDROM is mounted with noexec option. That means no files with +x 
(executable) atribute will be runned. Solutions a) copy CD content to 
disk b) remount CDROM without noexec. I'll post more detailed e-mail 
later, when I get to the office (as I am late;-) or probably someone 
else wille expand option b)
