If you're also using cdrecord for the actual burning, I've been hit by the problem that it screws up the last couple files on any ISO. Just about the only fix someone seems to have mentioned for this mysterious "read ahead" bug (cdrecord author's words) is to use dd to append an extra meg of zeros onto your ISO to make it write the end of the iso just fine and then screw up after all your files are written. Could be something completely different, but every ISO I've created or pulled from the net has been trashed by cdrecord because of this.
