I tried this.  I can mount iso images no problem but mount doesn't seem
to understand raw mode2 cd images.

I couldn't get it to work. It tries to read the file but exits.  I
tried also many variations of -sb & -ss.

I tried vcdimager but vcdxrip seems to understand only mpeg and mpeg2.
It exits with "**ERROR: unexpected descriptor type".  I also tried
bchunk to convert the image but the file it made didn't mount as iso or
cdfs.

Thanks for the suggestions. Apparently "daemon tools" (windoze) can
mount the images.  There must be some way, if not, oh well...  :)
