Eric Eisenhart responded:

Try mount -t hfsplus or mount -t hfs.
==============================
This 10.3 distro is a CD, not DVD. Using mount -t hfs gives--
block device /dev/cdrom is write-protected, mounting read-only
and then mount gives--
wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/cdrom or too many mounted
file systems.

Using mount -t hfsplus gives the same mounting read-only message, then
mount: /dev/cdrom already mounted or /mnt/cdrom busy

It is not mounted, however. Any ideas?
