    Most disc specific racks have the lower bolt spaced out to accomodate, I would NOT use this a child seat, some have a bent stay, but again it's weaker than a straight one and with a child on board......

    If your disc calliper is between the stays (mounted to chain stay usually) then non disc racks will usually fit OK, if it's chainstay mounted, get a cheap bike suitable for a child seat!
