It's OK, I am only interested in writing to the "root" filesystem.

Great, thanks for the tip. I forced UDF unconditionally in live.py
and then hit this problem:
       UDF-fs: Partition marked readonly; forcing readonly mount

Then I found this in "man mkisofs":
       "UDF support is currently in alpha status"

The following quote looks like a good summary:

       "With mkisofs, I cannot write; with mkudffs, I apparently cannot
        boot. Or is there a way out?
