Err, to reply to my own email:

It only mounts correctly with -t iso9660. If I try to mount without
specifying type, it throws those Buffer I/O errors and asks me to
manually specify filesystem type:

[root@tmi media]# mount /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom/
printk: 78 messages suppressed.

Buffer I/O error on device sr0, logical block 3
Buffer I/O error on device sr0, logical block 4

mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[root@tmi media]# 
[root@tmi media]# mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom/
