    Ok, when I do this:

    # mount -o session=0 /mnt/cdrom

    I get the first session I wrote, and when I do this:

    # mount -o session=1 /mnt/cdrom

    I get the second session.

    The man page showed the upper-case "O", and mount did not complain
    when I used the "-O", but still only gave me the second session.

    When I use the "-o" rather than "-O" I can get the various sessions.

    I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
