@Christoph: good workaround.  I can losetup my /dev/sr0 and mount the discs
(tested 1 anyway).  I need to omit the session=1 option on the loopback but it
does mount that way.  Just to be sure, I confirmed sr0 won't mount without the
session option.  Not sure what would happen if the data were on session=2.

For the HFS vs. SCSI question, I'm not clear why 22 out of 25 discs in this set
work OK but the remaining 3 would not.  They're factory-stamped discs, no idea
how they were mastered.

The only dmesg I get is:

 hfs: unable to set blocksize to 512
 hfs: can't find a HFS filesystem on dev sr0.

This is now kernel 2.6.34.7-56.fc13.x86_64.

Not sure if it's helpful, but here are the /sys sizes:

[bfccomputing@zpm sr0]$ more `pwd`/queue/*size
::::::::::::::
/sys/block/sr0/queue/hw_sector_size
::::::::::::::
2048
::::::::::::::

/sys/block/sr0/queue/optimal_io_size

::::::::::::::
/sys/block/sr0/queue/physical_block_size

I can't even say this is a feature implemented in MacOSX for compatibility that
linux lacks - for all I know, they do some sort of loopback mount automagically
if certain kinds of discs are detected.

I don't know if there are any linux equivalents for doing something similar by
the kernel; one could imagine userland machinations that could do the right
thing, though perhaps costly.
