>Description:
Two days ago I bought a music cd and discovered that it contains an extra
data track with two QuickTime movies. But unluckily NetBSD's SCSI CD-ROM
driver is not able to handle it. That's what the kernel says:

cd0(ncr0:2:0): medium error, info = 16 (decimal), data = 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00

This in on a P90 with a NCR and a Toshiba 5201, but I get the same message
on an Amiga with Z3 Fastlane and a Toshiba 3701 which reads the CD-ROM
fine under AmigaOS.

Because NetBSD is able to read other mixed CD ROMs I suppose the problem
is that the data track is not the first track on this CD.

>How-To-Repeat:
Buy "Herzfrequenz" by "Bluemchen" ;-), put it into a SCSI CD-ROM drive and
try to mount it with "mount_cd9660":
tron@sandra:~#mount -t cd9660 -o ro /dev/cd0a /cdrom
cd9660: Operation not permitted

>Fix:
Sorry, I don't know.
