Make an auto install


i have develop something look like an ebook using HTML & Flash for linux platform...and burn it into CD. The Cd also include the "flashplayer-installer" (flash palyer installer for linux). Once the CD is mounted, i want to make it auto install the flash player and then load the html page which contain Shockwave Flash(.swf). Below is my autorun file that only can load the html page:
=============================================
#!/bin/sh
#

mozilla file:///mnt/cdrom/index.html &

=============================================

could someone help me to modify these autorun file, to run "flashplayer-installer" (inside /cdrom/Flash-Player/)...

First, /cdrom/ is not an absolute mount point. Cdrom could be mounted anywhere, so it makes sense to use a relative path.

SOmething like
./flashplater-installer

It nay be more complicated if the autorun runs from an absolute path, instead of using the mountpoint as its working directory. The autorun script wouldhave to find the cdrom entry in the fstab and append that mountpoint to its working directory.

At least that's how it strikes me at this hour.
