I found a few more minutes to test two more kernels.  The problem
first occured with 2.6.12-rc1-mm2:

2.6.12-rc1     reads the cd-rom OK as reported earlier
2.6.12-rc1-mm1 also reads the cd-rom OK
2.6.12-rc1-mm2 broken same as -mm3 described as above
2.6.12-rc1-mm3 broken as reported earlier


Are you really really sure about that?  -mm3 included both the bk-ide-dev
tree and the isofs changes.  2.6.12-rc1-mm2 had neither.


Just to be really really sure, I repeated the tests.  I even checked
that the image/label combination in /etc/lilo.conf was what I intended,
but the uname -r should show what's what.

Same results, -mm2 broken, and -mm1 reads the disk.  I even tried
other CD's just to make sure I didn't have something weird.  Same results.


OK, thanks.

It would be interesting to copy a CD to hard disk (under -mm1) and see if
it works OK with the loopback driver.

Also, boot into -mm2 and do a `cmp' of the cdrom with the image which is on
hard-disk.

This should help us work out whether it's isofs, the driver, the VFS or
whatever.

It seems that I've run out of time here today.  If this is still an issue
after the weekend, I'll do the above tests.

Until then, Happy Easter.
