Or he 's missing the "iso9660 " filesystem module. Pedro, run this
command:
cat /etc/filesystems
and verify that "iso9660 " is listed in there. If not, somehow your
kernel doesn 't have that built in. Your kernel should have iso9660 and
ext2 built it...the others may be built in or done via modules located
in "/lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/fs "
