ok, i tried the mount command suggested by LivinFree (thanks for the advice)- did not make any difference. I tried rebooting (sigh), and that didn't help. I even tried burning another CD - still not working. I really am running out of options... I guess that I will try burning the CD on my windows box, but I doubt that will do anything - I don't think it's a problem with the burn - seems to be isolated to the linux box... I could always try to FTP! (might have to).

The deal is that it worked fine just 2 months ago!!

A thought:

The CD that I am having trouble with has quite a deep directory structure (3 dirs deep before the caps start) - not sure if that is the issue - don't think so tho - i'll try more testing...

Ok - maybe it does have something to do with the burn - I found the CD that I made a couple of months ago - it has a different dir structure, and the caps are THERE. Could it have to do with long directory names??

findfs - find a filesystem by label or UUID SYNOPSIS
findfs NAME=value DESCRIPTION
findfs will search the block devices in the system looking for a filesystem or partition with specified tag. The currently supported tags are: LABEL=<label> Specifies filesystem label. UUID=<uuid> Specifies filesystem UUID. PARTUUID=<uuid> Specifies partition UUID. This partition identifier is supported for example for GUID Partition Table (GPT) partition tables. PARTLABEL=<label> Specifies partition label (name). The partition labels are supported for example for GUID Partition Table (GPT) or MAC partition tables. If the filesystem or partition is found, the device name will be printed on stdout. The complete overview about filesystems and partitions you can get for example by lsblk --fs partx --show <disk> blkid EXIT STATUS
0 success 1 label or uuid cannot be found 2 usage error, wrong number of arguments or unknown option AUTHOR
