Actually, AIX 5.2 supports some UDF as well (v1.50, v2.00, v2.01, but
NOT v2.51). Try to mount with -v udfs option and see what happens. If
you think it is UDF but you're not sure of the version try this tool:
( http://www.extra.research.philips.com/udf/ )

I thought that UDF was only available with the OEM Panasonic drives, but
maybe it will work with your device.

You need to first determine if the disc is ISO9660 or UDF, then mount
with the correct options.
