right now working on an autorun script for Ubuntu

i've created a shell script which will check whether a cd is mounted or not. But still trying to figure out how to execute a file on the cd because unlike autorun.inf in windows which will execute all the shell commands in that file, without knowing the path to a file in Ubuntu , you cannot execute anything through a shell script. The problem that i have experienced is that different cds have different paths i.e they cannot be accessed everytime from /media/cdrom or /media/cdrom0 .. therefore will have to find a way to get the path .. most probably will have to go into low level programming
