Found the critter... its the ancient `buf->b_blkno' needs to be in DEV_BSIZE.
disk_read_sectors() has as argument a sectornr and a count... but the
sectornr needs to be in DEV_BSIZE units and count needs to be in sectorsize
units (!!)
I could easily fixup the disk_read_sectors() call to make it do what it claims
to do: read a disk sector since its only used in 3 places.
Another bigger one would be to move buf->b_blkno to allways specify sectorsize
units. This would at least mean conversion of scsipi/cd scsipi/sd (if needed)
and the fixups in iso9660 and UDF to follow this.
Then we ought to rename buf->b_blkno to buf>b_secno :-D
With regards,
Reinoud
