are you sure fc3 mounts cd-s with "-t hfs" ? i thought it should be iso9660. 
check in /etc/fstab to be sure.

joliet is not file system, it is an extension to the iso9660 standard. it is 
something you include or exclude while writing a cd. you can, of course, use 
the "nojoliet" option while mounting a iso9660 volume. read the manoage for 
mount to get more details.
