I have a Pioneer DVD-U03 SCSI-2 DVD-ROM Drive (like a DVD-U01).

My drive did not like the MODE_SENSE (6 byte) so I changed it to
MODE_SENSE_10
and now it correctly "gets the capabilities".

I could not mount data disks so I replaced the READ_10 with READ_12 and
replaced READ_6 with READ_10.  Have not experimented or looked at the
code much with this to see what is needed but I can mount and read all
the data disks I have tried.

I can even mount my DVD movies but I do not think it is working properly
when I "vi" the files.  The contents looked like pieces of the other
data disks I mounted and I get READ_10 errors.

thank you,
Brian C. Watson
