[Bug 884322] [NEW] mkisofs creates iso images that get "Incorrect CD-ROM detected" error

[Dan Rolsma]

Public bug reported:

To reproduce, install Oneirc or Natty, from the desktop or alternate
iso, 64 or 32 bit, created 10/23/2011 or later.  If earlier apply
updates released since 10/23/2011 (not reproducible on Natty or Oneirc
install prior to Oct 19).  Make an iso according to the
InstallCDCustomization Community Documentation.  These are my exact
commands from that documentation on a fresh install:

mkdir iso
sudo mount -o loop ubuntu-11.10-alternate-amd64.iso iso
sudo mkdir /cd-image
sudo rsync -a iso/* /cd-image
cd /cd-image
sudo mkisofs -r -V "My Install CD" -cache-inodes -J -l -b isolinux/isolinux.bin -c isolinux/boot.cat -boot-load-size 4 -no-emul-boot -boot-info-table -o ~/my.iso .

Now boot from the my.iso in a VirtualBox, or make a CD and boot from
that, and you'll get "Incorrect CD-ROM detected" about a minute into the
installation, right after "detecting hardware to find CD-ROM drives"
occurs in the installation.   You can also try using usb-creator-gtk to
make a bootable usb stick, but it won't accept the .iso image.  No error
msg, it just won't show it as selectable after clicking "Other ..." and
opening it.
