Every information that I could find tells me that my current kernel
version should support the Joliet filesystem. However, when I
recompiled the kernel, the make config did not ask me if I wanted joliet
support. (It did ask me for a bunch of other file systems)

When I reboot, I try the following command:

mount -t joliet /dev/hdc1 /cd

and the system tells me it does not support joliet.

Yes, I have the correct paths. I was able to mount an iso9660 cd with
the same paths.
I have 2.0.35 kernel.
I have S.u.S.E. 5.3.

I know I am doing something wrong, and I suspect that it is one of those
little things that will make me bang my head against the wall when I
find the answer.

Possible solutions:

1) The make config utility is referring to joliet by another name
2) The mount command expect another name than "joliet"
3) Your input...

Can anyone help?

Well, I found the answer to my problem all by myself. I just had to mount
the filesystem as a normal cd, but I was referring to the wrong device. I
should have used /dev/hdc instead of /dev/hdc1. Why was convinced /dev/hdc1
was the string I used to mount the iso9660 cd? That remains a mystery.
