Thanks. But it is definitely not a iso9660 file system, it's originally a windows FAT32, called vfat|msdos by Linux, file system. Underlying hard disk has no errors at all, since I can dd the whole partition to an image file without any problems. It should be a FAT table failure or some pioneer sectors on the specific partition failed. Don't know how to recover from this disaster. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Type mount on its own to see what filesystem type it is actually mounted as. Since I'm sure you wouldn't bring this up unless it was true, the other possibilities I can imagine is that your ripping action encoded it to iso9660 via a pipe to mkisofs, you dd'd it from a CD backup in a CD drive, or dd has hidden and mysterious powers until now kept secret from me - and from man dd :-) - -Andy - -- Find your answer without waiting for replies....
