[gentoo-user] [OT] Linux unable to read a k3b DVD

[Francesco Talamona]

I recently burnt a DVD with k3b, it seems perfect on windows boxes, all 
files are indeed correctly written and readable, a md5 sum tells they 
are binary equal to original, but no Linux box can mount it (tried on 
three different PCs with the same results).

If I try to mount this DVD, dmesg says:

end_request: I/O error, dev hdd, sector 64
isofs_fill_super: bread failed, dev=hdd, iso_blknum=16, block=16

or:

attempt to access beyond end of device
hdd: rw=0, want=68, limit=4
isofs_fill_super: bread failed, dev=hdd, iso_blknum=16, block=16

and then (after a long timeout) mount complains with the following 
message:

mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdd,
       missing codepage or other error
       In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
       dmesg | tail  or so

The disk isn't overburned (I know my burner, an LG GSA-4040B, isn't 
capable). I was unable to find anything useful with google, and I have 
a spindle box and an huge amount of data to write to disc...

Anyone knows what I have to do to make this disc readable to Linux?

Kernel 2.6.17-gentoo-r4, k3b 0.12.16, udev 089.

Thanks,
	Francesco
