	Please plese help me .. I am at the end of my wits ..  8-(

thanks much,
whay.


Symptom:

	Cdrom won't mount, optical drive flaky. Both work just fine
	in dos (can copy from slakware cdrom to optical drive and read 
	it back)

	(with slakware 3.2 CD in the drive, also tested with RedHat CD ):
	# mount -t iso9660 /dev/scd0 /mnt/cdrom -o ro
-->>>	Unable to identify CD-ROM Format
	mount:	wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/scd0,
		or too many mounted file systems.

	_BUT_ workbone plays audio CDs just fine, and
	"dd if=/dev/scd0 of=/dev/scd0 bs=2048" works just fine too.

	(relevant?) kernel mesg in /var/adm/messages :
	sr_photocd: (SONY/PIONEER) Hmm, seems the CDROM doesn't support multisession CD's.
	(the slakware CD is not multisesion, right?)

Setup:

	Slackware 3.2 Kernel 2.0.29 
		recompiled w/scsi driver: g_NCR5380 + 53c400 extension.
	Cyrix 486DLC 40Mhz
	dtc3150v scsi controller, irq 5, memory mapped 0xd8000 (pseudo-dma)

	Sony SMO-C301 magneto optical drive (id5)
	Sony CDU-8012 cdrom drive (id6 , end of chain.) 
	(No termination device visible on CDU-8012, I assume it's
	 internally terminated, since this setup works fine in dos.
	 Anyone has the spec ?)

Note:	I have another identical megneto optical drive in a p133, 
	hooked up through a SB-16/SCSI (aha152x) with a Hitachi harddisk (scsi2)
	and a Chinon CDS525(SCSI2), and they work just fine too -> appears
	that mixing scsi-1 and scsi-2 on the same chain is not the source
	of the problem.

	The optical drive from the above flaky 486 system had been tested
	in the p133, and that was ok too.
