Hi Y'all,

I've been able to mount them read-only and copy data from them to other 
media. The command and output I get is as follows:

[root@graham graham]# mount -t udf /dev/scd0  /mnt/cdrom2
mount: block device /dev/scd0 is write-protected, mounting read-only


The device and mount point may be different on your system.  You will 

probably need to be root to do this.


Having done this, you can access this as you would any other cdr.
