What you can try is:
cdrecord dev=YOUR_DEV_HERE -msinfo
and obtain the START_VALUE and END_VALUE sectors for the second
session. (YOUR_DEV_HERE should be your cdrom device or nothing if you
have set up the /etc/cdrecord.conf defaults)
Having the starting and ending sector values you can use:
dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/tmp/file.iso skip=START_VALUE
or something similiar. I don't remember on top of my head what is the
typical BLOCK size for iso9660. That way you will be able to copy the
second session into a file that you can try mounting as a loopback.
Haven't done it though so I can't vauch for its 100% success. It won't
harm you at all though in any way.
