I had similar problem when making backup of my home directory.

Problem was avoided by making iso image while excluding certain 
directories which kept netscape cache data.  I think I erased those 
directory prior to CD-R backup.  This is my faint memory and may not
be correct.

I thought that these directory contains very long filenames 
differ only in last few characters which seems to create this problem.  

I am thinking of updating my backup script to use "tar" first.  This
way makes all permission and links in order.

Good luck.
