Mounting an EXT2FS CD on FreeBSD-5.1

I am trying to mount a CD burned with an EXT2 filesystem on
a PC installed with FreeBSD-5.1
# mount -t ext2fs /dev/acd0 /cdrom
ext2fs: /dev/acd0: No such file or directory
# ls -l /dev/acd0
crw-r--r-- 1 root operator 117, 0 Jul 31 02:06 /dev/acd0
I get an "incorrect superblock" error message when I try to
mount the CD as cd9660. I took that to mean that /dev/acd0
works since the superblock is being read.
# mount /dev/acd0 /cdrom
mount: /dev/acd0 on /cdrom: incorrect super block
The following is the relevant output from dmesg:
---
kernel: ata1-master: piomode=12 dmamode=34 udmamode=-1 dmaflag=1
kernel: ata1-master: success setting PIO4 on Intel ICH0 chip
kernel: acd0: <LG CD-RW CED-8042B/1.07> CD-RW drive at ata1 as master

I read another message on the list archives where someone was
trying to mount an ext2 filesystem off of a USB device. He had
something similar going on.
Is this a bug, or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks,
