Hi,
today I see this new automatic update on my Ubuntu 12.04 x64 and was curiour reading the bug report because of a similar problem.
I'm not sure, if my problem, some few days ago , has to do with the same cause.
It was the first time I ever used my Ubuntu to burn a DVD, so all settings should have been default.
Description:
As source I used the downloaded ISO of PartedMagic from 2012_11_30.
I simply opened this with Brasero to start burning on a DVD-RW, which first had to be erased.
After some time I saw 100% complete and something like "finalizing the media" and I continuously recognized mechanical movements from the readers head.
As after 5..10 min. nothing changed, I clicked Abort.
Then shortly I saw something with "successful", but I was unsure, if it was caused by my click or if it had happened anyway.

After, the disk was unreadable, even from Windows 7.
But I anyway tried to boot from it to start PartedMagic, but it didn't work.

Please think about, if this covers the same bug or if it is a different problem.

The downloaded ISO should have been OK, as I could burn successfully with Windows 7 right after.
