Nothing.

I just tried burning a KNOPPIX CD, and cdrecord did not complain
or have any unusual messages, however the resultant CD was unusable
(read errors), but since I tried booting it I can't read its dmesg.

I'll reboot with an old kernel and try a 'cmp' on the disk and the image.
to see where it fails.

Note: I think the result appears to give media read errors, not just bad 
data.
(I hear the CD drive re-seeking.)
