I have a DVD, a data DVD rather than movie or music, from Seagate Business Storage 2-bay NAS, that is mountable with mount_cd9660 but not readable in FreeBSD and NetBSD, using current amd64 versions of FreeBSD and NetBSD.

ls /cdrom showed nothing; ls -al /cdrom showed

drwxr-xr-x  26 root  wheel  1024 Jul 25 03:31 ..

df showed

/dev/cd0          1832610  1832610         0   100%    /cdrom

so it looked like something was there.

Mounted under Linux (System Rescue CD 4.3.0), main directory showed 

autorun.inf

Haiku R1Alpha4 (haiku-os.org) was also able to show these directories and read the DVD.

Is there any way I can read this DVD in FreeBSD or NetBSD, or is this a deficiency or bug in FreeBSD and NetBSD?

I tried mount -t udf (no good) and "mount_cd9660 -be /dev/cd0 /cdrom" (same result as without -be).

What more details could I give?
