I've been unable to get my Mavica CD1000 disks mounted
on the USB bus despite trying a lot of things. If
anyone knows for sure what to do, I'd love to hear
about it.

This was a thread I started on this group previously.
Nothing anyone suggested works.

However, the CDs will mount as ordinary CDs, so it's
not as if I don't have a way to view the images.
Therefore I've just dropped the matter until the next
time I feel like beating my head against the wall.
