   The only file that you seem to be missing on the Info-Explorer CD is the
aixmin file.  This file only contains basic information on running Info-     
Explorer and AIX.  It's really only needed if it's the only info database
that you have on the system.  In the case of CD-ROM there's no need to include
aixmin since everything that is in aixmin is dicussed in the other info 
databases.
