The current HFS code doesn't work with HFS-formatted CD-ROM with 2k block size. I do not really know if it's HFS fs' fault or not, though. Attempts to mount a 2k-block HFS formated CD-ROM produce the following kernel message on 2.4.0-test5:
Aug 9 08:49:03 localhost kernel: sr.c:Bad 2K block number requested (2 1) I/O error: dev 0b:00, sector 2 Aug 9 08:49:03 localhost kernel: hfs_fs: unable to read block 0x00000002 from dev 0b:00 Aug 9 08:49:03 localhost kernel: hfs_fs: Unable to read superblock Aug 9 08:49:03 localhost kernel: sr.c:Bad 2K block number requested (0 1) I/O error: dev 0b:00, sector 0 Aug 9 08:49:03 localhost kernel: hfs_fs: unable to read block 0x00000000 from dev 0b:00 Aug 9 08:49:03 localhost kernel: hfs_fs: Unable to read block 0.
I can see that hfs_fs and SCSI CD-ROM drivers don't agree on block number to be accessed. Is this not a bug?
