After installing FC3 from scratch on a box that previously had FC1 I was going to install Maple 9.5 which comes on a hybrid CD for Linux/MacOS/Windows (depending on what OS you mount it, the install files for that OS will show up).
When I mounted this CD under FC1 the correct files showed up, but on FC3 I got the MacOS part of the CD and couldn't install (!).
What gives? Are there any parameters I can give to 'mount', or is this a bug?
I've solved this by simply mounting the CD on a FC1 box, tarballing all the files and copied them over the network, but would like to know for future reference, and possibly bugzilla this.
Cheers, -- Tarjei

Does using "mount -t iso9660" fix this?

Yes it did, thanks.
This means that the "auto" stuff in /etc/fstab doesn't work properly then? My fstab entry that was created on install reads:
/dev/hda /media/cdrecorder auto \ pamconsole,fscontext:system_u:object_r:removable_t,ro,\ exec,noauto,managed 0 0

Thanks James, it didn't actually occur to me to search for Maple 9.5... :-S
In any case, should this be considered a bug? When there a multiple filesystems on a CD, should the iso9660 fs be automatically selected as the one to mount automatically?
It would be nice to at least have mount notice you of this:
"This media has several filesystems available: hfs, iso9660, xxx. Automatically mounting hfs."
I guess hybrid cd's aren't all too common, so maybe this is much ado about nothing.... :)
