Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: brasero

I was installing Windows for Workgroups 3.11 (WfW) in VirtualBox and it
seemed a good idea to put all network drivers and other stuff in an ISO
file to be used by WfW. I have created those files with Brasero, ISO
Master using Ubuntu 10.10 and Nero using Windows XP.

VirtualBox only understands the Nero ISO images and other images I
downloaded from the Internet. The images created by Brasero and ISO
master cannot be used, some directories show up empty and many of the
files in the ISO cannot be read.

Note that Nautilus reports a 2MB file size while the Nero Image is more
then 40MB. While I was adding the files Brasero did give a warning about
incompatibility with Windows and it would truncated the filename to 64
bytes, which seems strange for WfW files mostly 8 character filemames.
The input files came from an NTFS network drive.

The problem is not with the Guest OS, because there I tried WfW/DOS,
Windows 95, Windows 2000 and Ubuntu 10.10. All those OSes showed the
same type of problems.

Ubuntu 10.10 is daily updated and VirtualBox is version 4.0.0. I have
attached the file created by Brasero.
