Short victory.  It loads the module (visible in /proc/filesystem, and
/proc/cdfs exists).  But when I try to mount the CDROM with the -t
cdfs and rest of the syntax as per instructions on the author's site
(cdfs author) the system hangs.  So I simply booted a copy of SMART
Linux that I have which has that module on it and working.  That did
the trick.

I'm wondering if the problem is that the latest cdfs version is for
kernel 2.6.12 and I'm running 2.6.16.  Oh well, worked around the
problem.

Thanks,

Jacques B.
