A general question:
 Have you ever managed to successfully mount a cd-rom?

a more specific question.
 What kind was it, and what was it?

I cannot mount the sun answer book CDROM

does anybody know if this can be done?
suposedly it is iso9660 but I cannot mount it.

I have never heard of anyone successfuly using the iso filesystem
has anyone done this?

I have the driver for the cdrom working on the new scsi system
but can't mount the drive. I went back to the old scsi (as) system
and That won't allow me to mount either..
has anybody managed to mount a SUN cdrom? It's all I have here to test with.
