CDROM drives and partitioning

It is rare for a CD to be built with partitions; in the modern world, a CD's capacity is considered small enough as it is without splitting it up further. Many of the other reasons for using partitions (robustness in case one partition's filesystem gets corrupted, containing excessive space usage, etc.) also do not apply to the CD medium. As a result, the Linux CD driver does not support partitioning at all.
CD 上创建分区是非常罕见的；在当今时代，CD 的容量本就已经很小，没有必要再进一步拆分。而使用分区的其他常见理由（比如当某个分区的文件系统损坏时增强鲁棒性、限制磁盘空间滥用等）也不适用于光盘介质。因此，Linux 的 CD 驱动完全不支持分区。

It turns out, however, that some companies do produce CDs with partition tables on them. Linux systems will be unable to mount and read the filesystems on such CDs. Most users have never encountered this problem, but, for those who have, Steven Hill has posted a patch which adds CDROM partition support to the SCSI CDROM driver.
然而，事实证明确实有一些公司生产带有分区表的 CD。Linux 系统在遇到这种 CD 时将无法挂载和读取其文
