    Well I just compiled in a module for UDF file-system since somebody
    said it could be UDF on the CD instead of ISO-9660. In the process
    of re-booting (nothing else), the CD decided to be mountable.

    This doesn't make any sense because once the M$ CD wouldn't mount
    I tried other ISO-9660 CDS and they mounted fine. I do backups
    using ISO-9660 with the Joliet extensions as well. Anyway, I
    could read the M$ CD using `od` as well.

    So, all I did was re-boot (just like Windows) and it mounted fine.
    Maybe there's somebody working on Linux that used to work for
    M$, so it got infected with the Windows syndrome?

    Cheers,
