Brian, I am in doubt that this is "Fix Released". Maybe "Fixed Partially". I have a CD-RW that is not recognizable in Linux. This is a CD-RW with photos on it, which I wrote in Vista in a very particular manner*. The CD-RW burned with Vista's file manager using the "LiveFS" (Microsoft's implementation of UDF 2.5)

If your attempt to reproduce my issue please be sure to insert CD-RW media into the Vista Machine and try both of these methods, comparing the outcome:

Tests:
*1) add files, remove some files, eject disc, insert disc, add more files, eject disk, insert disc into intrepid machine
2) add files, eject disk, insert disc into intrepid machine

Outcomes:
1) ISOFS: Unable to identify CD-ROM format.
2) UDF 2.5 CD-RW is read correctly

Please let me know if you can reproduce this Brian. If so can you please re-open this bug and create an upstream bug at bugzilla.kernel.org.

Jan Kara speaks of a patch that was added to 2.6.26 to add support UDF 2.50. I fear this patch may be incomplete/buggy.
