What makes you think it isn't working?  ls -Z isn't going to work
regardless, as iso9660 doesn't provide extended attribute handlers.  But
the context= option should set the security context that is applied
internally by SELinux to the incore inodes, so that they will be access
controlled accordingly.  BTW, fscontext= may be more suitable here than
context=.
