I take that back, it works on some discs. The successes are a mix of burned
and pressed, but always are reported by "file" to be:
ISO 9660 CD-ROM filesystem data UDF filesystem data (unknown version, id 'NSR0
When that disc is mounted, "mount" says:
/dev/hda on /media/CDROM type iso9660
and /proc/filesystems contains iso9660 but not udf (no doubt they're
configured as modules). For the failures, "file - < /dev/hda" says "data".
I haven't figured out the pattern yet.
