Whenever I try to mount a CD-ROM:

	mount -r -t isofs /dev/cd0a /mnt

I get:
	cd0: illegal request
	cd0: illegal request

I can read the directories of the disks fine, but whenever I try to
read any file that is not in the toplevel directory, the open fails
with errno = EINVAL (Invalid Argument).

I'm using a patchlevel 58 kernel with the new SCSI drivers, a Adaptec
1742a controller, and a Texel 3024 CD ROM drive.

I can read the disks fine in MSDOS.
