I've got an update for this problem I emailled about last night (and for
which I only received one reply :-) ).

Strangely enough, I'm able to actually burn a CD using the cd-rw
described below, and can verify data written to it (using X-CD-Roast).
I still can't actually mount a cd in the drive without getting the error
described below, but at least I can burn CDs now.

Does this behavior sound like a kernel problem, or does it suggest a bug
in the 'mount' utility?
