You get the same silent rejection if the ISO simply lacks /.disk/info ,
e.g. a Fedora 15 ISO or ReactOS ISO, see bug 705353 (which perhaps
should be made a dupe of this).

To add to Mr. Greening's analysis, as I commented in bug 705353, there
seems to be a logic error in 10.10's
usbcreator/backends/udisks/backend.py .  It doesn't test if the output
of `isoinfo -J -i /path/to/Some.iso -x /.disk/info` is an empty string ,
so it doesn't realize it's failed, so its logging error 'Could not
extract .disk/info.' is never reached! That code has a "# TODO evand
2009-07-26: Error dialog.", but maybe base/backend.py should trigger the
error dialog.
