Mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/scd0

Problem

Within Debian 3.1, I'm unable to burn cd. Cdrecord/wodim seems successful, but mount /media/cdrom gives error:

$> mount /media/cdrom
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/scd0,
       missing codepage or other error
       In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
       dmesg | tail  or so
$> dmesg | tail
Current sd0b:00: sense key Medium Error
Additional sense indicates L-EC uncorrectable error
 I/O error: dev 0b:00, sector 381816
isofs_read_super: bread failed, dev=0b:00, iso_blknum=95454, block=95454

Solution 1: eject disc before mounting

After recording, the cd must be ejected before mounting:

eject /media/cdrom
mount /media/cdrom

If that doesn't help, try blanking the disc totally before writing. In my case, the disc had been written by another (older) cdwriter.

cdrecord dev=/dev/hdc blank=all

Solution 2: disc is empty

I receive the same error when I try to mount a cd which I just blanked:

$ cdrecord dev=/dev/hdc blank=all -force
...
$ eject /dev/hdc
$ mount /dev/hdc
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdc,
       missing codepage or other error
       In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
       dmesg | tail  or so

After recording some data to the disc, mounting is successful - without errors.

Within /boot/grub/menu.lst, I added hdc=ide-scsi:

kernel          /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.27-2-386 root=/dev/hda1 ro hdc=ide-scsi

To be able to mount the cdrom, I changed this line in /etc/fstab as well:

#/dev/hdc       /media/cdrom0   iso9660 ro,user,noauto  0       0
/dev/scd0       /media/cdrom0   iso9660 ro,user,noauto  0       0

Modified link /dev/cdrom:

lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 8 2007-01-28 17:34 cdrom -> /dev/hdc
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 9 2007-02-25 15:19 cdrom -> /dev/scd0

Create small test iso:

genisoimage -input-charset ISO-8859-1 -o test.iso -R /etc/fstab  # Or `mkisofs', which is symlink to `genisoimage'
sudo cdrecord -multi -v -tao speed=2 dev=0,0,0 test.iso

cdrecord seems successful, but mount /media/cdrom gives error:

mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/scd0,
       missing codepage or other error
       In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
       dmesg | tail  or so

dmesg | tail
