It wasn't a multi-session cd, but I figured it out, I think.  I was
creating the image using mkisofs, which apparently does not have the
Joliet support as I had previously stated.  I used mkhybrid to create a
new image that has the Joliet support and the disk is now accessible via
win95.  Weird thing is, when I first got my cd writer, I copied an
existing windows disk using mkisofs and it works fine.  Whatever...

It should be illegal to yell "Y2K" in a crowded economy.
