How were the CD-RWs written? If they were written using UDF (which is
what a number of Windows programs like to do with CD-RW media), you
won't be able to read them without the experimental UDF support enabled
in the kernel -- and my understanding is that it still has a lot of bugs
to be ironed out.

You are mounting the CD-RWs, right?

Also, what is your full /etc/fstab line? Should be something like:
/dev/cdrom	/cdrom		iso9660	ro,user,noauto		0	0

Make sure you have an fs type listed -- otherwise you *WILL* have
problems, regardless of media.
