Hi everyone,
here is my problem:
I'm working with FB2.2.5, but I've had a lot
of trouble working my ATAPI CD-ROM, an ancient
ECS ELITEGROUP 2x. It is detected by the kernel, but
there was no way to mount it.
After almost two years, not all spent trying to
mount CD-ROMs, I've found that the startsector figured
out from CD-ROM (may be it a default?) worth 512
(I don't remember where I take it, I should have read 
that value running mount_cd9660 -v).
My CD-ROM can't be mounted with that value, but
works fine with -s 0. According to the manpage, if the 
CD driver is empty, the software should default startsector
to 0, but it doesn't appear to be so. It's not a huge
problem: it simply means that people could haven't an
automatic CD-ROM detection, but they must apply some 
parameter by hand. Could it happen with other, more 
modern, CD-ROM driver? In other words, do you know 
this problem?

Thank you.
