I doubt this could help. The only thing it would change is generating the image on the disc instead of burning it on the fly. In all cases it looks like a bug in genisoimage, for which n-c-b is only a frontend. Can reproduce the issue when telling n-c-b to generate a writable image, then opening this image with file-roller, instead of burning a disc? -- .''`. : :' : We are debian.org.
