There was a similar bug reported in May from Casper Dik (6562403).
Unfortunately Casper did never send the information I asked for, so the problem
could not be investigated.

If your problem is that the medium you mounted is incosistent, then you would
complain at the manufacturer/publisher.
The problem with CD/DVD/.... media is that this media usually now contain 3
filesystems in 4 flavors:
- ISO-9660
- ISO-9660 Rock Ridge extensions
- Joliet
- UDF
If you ask a utility (like e.g. fstyp) whether a specific filesystem type is
available, you will typically get positive replies for all filesystems!
Media handling on Solaris is unfortunately based on asking this way and the
first ask that results in a positive will be turned into a mount action.
**** I just found that we did forget to enhance /usr/lib/fs/hsfs/fstyp to know
about Joliet when Joliet support was added a year ago....
In any case, we will get into trouble!
- The DVD manufacturers believe that there is a standard that requires
UDF on a DVD medium.
- There is no such "requirement" for other media types....
- Many people believe that UDF is a better choice than ISO-9660, but this
is not correct from my experiences:
- UDF limits single files to a max of ~ 200 GB
- ISO-9660 limits single files to 8 TB
This all will not create real problems in case that you manually mount the
medium, but it will cause trouble if you auto-mount with any possible rule-set.

Please repeat the text using "isoinfo -d". If isoinfo _also_ reports a Volume
size of 33.6 GB, then this is a medium that has been created by a
(intentionally???) buggy application.
