I read Direct CD CDRWs by mounting them with a file system of UDF, works fine. If you are seeing autorun.inf and udf.exe, then Mandrake is probably detecting it as the iso9660. If you manually mount the drive and use -t udf you should be OK. Try something like: mount -t udf /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
(you might have to change the /dev and /mnt depending on how your system is setup). BTW, CDRWs do not automatically have the autorun.inf and udf.exe. Only those formatted by Direct CD (and possibly other Windows burning software).
