Hi Jens,
cdrom_read_toc (ide-cd.c) always reads the TOC using MSF format. If the
last session of the disk starts beyond block 1152000 (LBA) there's an
overflow in the MSF format and kernel complains:

Unable to identify CD-ROM format.

I reported this bug a while ago (see bug #1930 on bugzilla) and Andy
Polyakov tracked it down.

I tried fixing it by myself setting msf_flag (cdrom_read_tocentry) to 0
and removing the MSF to LBA conversions in cdrom_read_toc.
It works but I don't have a complete understanding of the code in
ide-cd...

This is the quick & dirty patch (against 2.6.9, apply with offset to
2.6.10-rc3):

Need help for a proper fix ;-)
