Do you mean, on a Linux installation cd, or on some JOLIET cd you made
yourself ?
If it's a linux cd, that's okay, because it has RockRidge extensions,
and the
permissions _are_ stored correctly on the cd. Besides, if the cd has
RockRidge
extensions, the mode= keyword is not valid (or ignored) as per the man
page.

Now, if it is a Joliet cd _without_ RockRidge (you can have the two, but
not with
Windows-based mastering software), this is _not_ the case for me: I
always get
xx-xxxx--  (674, notice the exec bit for the group) on ALL files ...
 
I make my cd's at my work-place, and have to use Windows-based software, 
so I use Joliet to be able at least to keep correct file names ...

Could be, did you find something specific ?

Thanks anyway.
