>Description:
	
I've made CD's of photos before, using the same procedure as detailed
below with no problems. 

mkhybrid -J -L -r -o /var/cdwriter/printCD1.iso -a -v -v -f .

If I then:

vnconfig -c vnd0 /var/cdwriter/printCD1.iso
mount -r -t cd9660 /dev/vnd0a /mnt

everything looks right, I can xview all the .jpg's and xv the .tif's
(didn't try them all...), ok.
But all the plain text files are garbage. 
If I do the above while running 1.3.2 (which is what I was running
last time I made a CD) including the mkhybrid run, I just get a read
error for /mnt/index.htm etc.

On 1.4.2 (using 1.4.2 version of mkhybrid) I appear to read random
binary data: 

$ strings /mnt/index.htm 
ld-search end re-search-forward "^\\(to\\|cc\\):" "^[^ 
\n]" backward-char 1 insert-before-markers "Sent-via:"] 5 (#$ . 16134) nil])
#@32 Move point to end of To-field.
(defalias 'mail-to #[nil "
" [expand-abbrev mail-position-on-field "To"] 2 (#$ . 16522) nil])
#@37 Move point to end of Subject-field.
...

$ strings /mnt/index.htm  
http://www.qui?
http://www.natiojk
http://www.ht.com.au/Scripts/xworks.exe?SEARjk

$ strings /mnt/index.htm  
2000030917:
http://www.quick.com.au/
...

ie.  I get a different result each time I run strings on the same file.

If I burn the .iso file onto a CD and mount that, everything is fine.

I'll see if I can make a .iso image that people can copy for testing.
