HI,
I am running FreeBSD 2.2.7
I did not realize it this ...
man mount_cd9660

 Start the filesystem at startsector. Normally, if the underlying
             device is a CD-ROM drive, mount_cd9660 will try to figure out
the
             last track from the CD-ROM containing data, and start the
             filesystem there.

So I tried ...
mount_cd9660 -s0 /dev/wcd0c /cdrom

which worked.

Thank You!
NRead

Hi Nread,

Please post your version and kernel to assist us to help you.

At root just try mount /cdrom, I have learned this works for me
ver 2.2.7.
Also check to make sure your /dev is not maybe wdc0, like mine,
basic IDE channel 0.
