Same with most folks I know (I’m too lazy/rarely mount more than one thing at a time). I was more refering to the fact that using mount_cd9660 instead of mount -t cd9660 lets you save some typing 8-)

(or /dev/cd0a, I forget which).”

Not that it’s important, but I’ve always just done the following with ATAPI drives:

mount_cd9660 /dev/cd0c /mnt/

You can use tab completion this way ;^)
