Hi all,

  I've been working for RockRidge support of *BSD last summer and
re-start it again after finishing my project.  During do enhancements,
I have a problem to mount a Photo CD with my TOSHIBA XM-3401B. I know
Photo CD file system format is ISO9660, it should be possible to mount
to *BSD.

  After my investgation, I realize XM-3401B with current SCSI system
is based on SCSI-2 which proposed only to basic stuffs and play Audio.
But TEXEL and SONY is Ok.  (their drives are not necessary to chang a
mode by SCSI driver, but even TEXEL and SONY are impossible to select
second session without relation ship of SCSI driver ;-)

So if we wish to mount/access Photo CD (XA/mode-2,form-1/2), we need
to support a vendor unique function as well as DOS's scsi drivers do.

If you know these information of vendor unique ones, please let me
know.  (I also appreciate, you just show me *pointer*)

I will summrize as *source code*

Thanks in advance.

Atsushi.
