Thanks, but here is really no changes.

The fact is, that the Ubuntu 9.04 executes sh file after "asking" what
to  do. The Ubuntu 10.04 has the same setting, but the "ask" dialog is
shown  only in case when script file has "executable" permission, what
is not possible on CD.

IMHO it must be a bug. I will report it.
