I've got DSL and i like it alot. The mount app is extremely easy to ue and I love it, the problem is when i click the drive icon nothing happens.
Well, something does actually, but it just pops up and disappears.
I caught a glimpse of the name and it's mc, so i guess it's Midnight Commander?
How can I view and change my files? Is midnight commander in DSL? If not what else do you recommend?

You really should be asking this question in the "Help" section of the forum.....but I will tell you how fix your problem.

1. (in the mount.app) double-click the name of the drive (like /floppy)
2. a window will popup called "mount.app Configurator"
3. in the tabs at the top, click "Commands"
4. on the right side you see it has the command "xterm -e mc %s &"
5. change the command to say "emelfm %s &"
6. click the button at the bottom that says "Make it so"

And now when you double-click on the icon of a mounted drive, it will invoke emelfm showing the contents of the mounted drive.

I hope this helps
